My name is Kevin, Van was my best friend and one of the best guys I have ever known. I think on his memory often, and miss him more than I can express. He was very close with my family and my children considered him an uncle. They too also miss him very much. We often discuss times we had spent with him. For who ever may be concerned, Van was a wonderful guy, he cared when he needed to care, and though he could never offer anything material when you found yourself in trouble, he was ALWAYS there to lend a hand or be supportive. He was hilarious almost to a fault. I and my family will never forget him......R.I.P. Van.....
