Willy Kleiman was the brother of Johannes Kleiman.

Willy Kleiman was a brother of Johannes Kleiman. He worked as a fumigator, office manager[1] and buyer[2]

Willy was married to P.C. Libert from 12 February 1925 to 23 October 1931. HIs brother Johannes was a witness at their wedding.[3] From 1935 the brothers jointly owned a pest control company called 'Cimex Instituut'.[4] After divorcing his first wife, he married Ilse Schubert in 1933.[1] This marriage made him a brother-in-law of Bernard Roozendaal. Around 1943 Willy and Johannes arranged a hiding place in Zaanstreek for Roozendaal's daughter Greet.[5]

He was a company director and later an authorised signatory of Paauwe's Volautomatische Kalenderuurwerken N.V.. He retained that post until his death.[6] On 17 June 1941 he reported to the Marnixstraat station, on behalf of Paauwe's board, the theft of a jacket and a raincoat belonging to employees.[2]

He died unexpectedly on holiday in Austria. His brother Jo and Bernard Roozendaal's son Fried brought the widow back home. The burial had already taken place in Austria.[7]
