So i've had a few days to sit on this and now i'll share..

So I have had a couple of days to sit on this and gather my feelings on the matter so now i'll share..
A Dear Dear Man we grew to love in Texas we just found out passed away last month, by all standard way too young (he was in his mid-late 50's).. Bro. VanDremmelen (Bob was his first name but i have no recollection of ANYone calling him anything but Bro. Van) died of effects of an enlarged heart.. We got to know him when we spent almost the month at the Children's Hospital with Lane.. He is who i was inspired (and you won't be able to convince me it wasn't inspiration) to call to administer and help on many blessings of Lane.. he also gave Ben and I a blessing on surgery day that i can't even think of one tiny morsel to share because the whole experience was just too sacred.. He spoke at Lane's funeral and then because we were slightly damaged after the whole ordeal he got to be our Home Teacher even though he was a High Priest and Ben's an Elder he served as our HT for almost a year and really nurtured our soul's and was fun and was a diligent servant..

I contacted his dear sweet wife who i have to say also helped me in more ways than one through out our whole stay in Texas.. She is a remarkable woman who i hear is doing great and "pressing forward"... we got to know their youngest son Brad quite well when Sam lived with us one summer.. i guess the silver lining is the weeks before his passing he was able to welcome Brad home from his mission and witness his last daughter get married..

I wish i had a picture of Bro. Van to share but looking through EVERYTHING i can't find one.. but i will never forget his smile and his huge servants heart.. he truly did have a heart too big to be contained here on earth.. i have no doubt he is about our father's work and working as diligently there as he did here.. I also have no doubt he has met our little boy Lane and reminiscing about their time they spent together 8 years ago...

It will take me a bit to be able to wrap my mind around this but he will surly be missed but the effects of his work and diligence will be remembered and the effects of his work be recognized in the people he touched.. and that is the FOX family for sure!!!
