Blessings to your entire family. We knew Bob and Diane way back when your family lived on Knollview/Rollingview in Hudsonville. Our house was right next door to yours. We remember your mother as being one classy lady. She had a generous heart and a welcoming smile. Diane was a gracious hostess and was a good friend to talk to about raising our children. Our family prays that you all enjoy special memories of both your Parents and Grandparents for years to come. They left a legacy to you. You are the Blessings that they cherished so much. God Bless you ALL.

I was very excited when Bob had a girlfriend I loved Diane from the beginning. I worked for Bob and Diane for several years at Vanderlaan home improvement I would often spend time with Diane on the phone sometimes for an hour chitchatting about whatever I watch the children grow up, my wonderful nieces and nephew such a great family I am proud of all of you. I have loved you all. watched you grown and become caring and loving people with families of your own I couldn’t be prouder of you all. your dad was my best friend and has a special place in my heart and your mother was a talented teacher a great decorator. She always had ideas and was game for building new houses or buying existing houses. they were a great team and I don’t know how they did it with three kids and all they did but they did.
