Not sure what to say?

I will never forget Dr.Vroon. He was one of a kind. he was intelligent ,kind, thoughtful and had a great since of humor. He is definitely missed.

I was so very sad to hear about the passing of Dr. Vroon. He was a patient, understanding, kind gentleman who was always willing to impart his knowledge. My deepest condolences are with his family during this difficult time.

DR. VROON WAS ONE OF THE SWEETEST PATIENTS I HAD THE PLEASURE OF TAKING CARE OF. I WILL MISS HIM AND SOME OF OUR ADVENTURES COOKING ON THE GREEN EGG. I OFFER MY SYMPATHIES TO HIS FAMILY WE HAVE LOST A GREAT MAN.

Dr. Vroon was a special man. I remember so often when he'd say to me: "Rick, if you ever need help, just call me." Those times when I needed his advice or assistance, he was there for me. I will always credit him with the successes I've enjoyed in my professional career.

May God bless and keep Dr. Vroon and comfort his family.

I'm sure that Uncle Dave touched many in the course of his life. He had a wry smile that made you wonder what he was up to, what he was thinking. And you had to smile too. I was especially honored that he and my Aunt Joyce attended my wedding in '05. I know that wasn't an easy trip for them. Uncle Dave could be tough...always honest.
