We are so sorry to learn of Adrian's passing. It was a pleasure to get to know him and work with him when he sold his condo. He was a true gentleman!

I remember a wonderful educator and a wonderful man from my years as a student at Newhall Junior High, and as I performed my student teaching there in 1970. God bless you Mr Vanderveer.
