Dad VanHoose was a kind man, talented in music and photography as well as art. He was a giving person, and I will not forget how he gave us one of his cars to help with transportation as a second vehicle which we kept running until it could not run anymore, feeling thankful for the gift. We think of him often and know that he is at peace with the Lord.

Nancy,
There are no words to express how sorry I feel for your loss. Jimmy was a very kind and loving man. Zach, Rachel, and Christian wish they could have attended the services but the distance makes it very difficult.

Karen, I'm so sorry about your loss. My mom passed suddenly last March and the thing that helped the most was knowing that people were praying. My wish for you is that you and your family have peace during this time and know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Nancy,
I was so sorry to hear about your husband passing away. I lost my husband, Bob, in March. So I think I know a little bit about how you feel. You have my sympathy and prayers.

Nancy and family. My heart is heavy, for I have lost another life time friend. My religion is thin at best, but if God hears all, then He will count mine. Our deepest condolences. Bill T.
