Not sure what to say?

Dear VanderMeyden family, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I have such fond memories growing up next door. One of my memories of your dad was watching him pack up the station wagon and camper. Always looked like such a great adventure for you all. My sincere Christian sympathies to each of you. May the LORD bring you comfort and joy as you remember his life and the joy he must be having now in the presence of the LORD. Sending love and prayers, Luanne Alderden (nee Stevens)

I always enjoyed working with Bill (as I knew him). I'm glad he enjoyed many years of retirement.

My deepest sympathy for the passing of a dear friend and mentor. I had the pleasure of working with Bill (Wil) early in my career and I always appreciated his friendship and intellectual conversations.

Please accept our deepest sympathy and prayers.
Sincerely,
Bruce and Peggy (Ettema) Reynhout

Will has been an inspiration to all who knew him at Park Place. His love and devotion to the Lord, his family, his fellow believers, and everyone else has been outstanding. I came to love him dearly as well as Gert and will miss him immensely. He has left us all a legacy to follow. Gert’s devotion and care for him this past year is unsurpassed as well. I look forward to seeing him once again in glory! Thank you Will for your love and encouragement to me. With Jesus’ love, Pastor/Chaplain Mark...
