Sylvester Henry VanHove

Thank you Van , For all you did for me

My deepest sympathy to Wanda and family. Ive known Van since i was a kid and im now 62. Met him thru the funeral home. Our family thru the years have got to know him very well. Will miss his friendly smile and hugs.

My thoughts are with you. Even though I'm Wandas cousin I only got to know Van professionally as I left Waverly in '68. I do remember enjoying visiting with him,

He was a very compassionate man, truly helped me with the loss of my son!, I never forgot that!

Mr. Van Hove was a wonderful, kind gentleman who was a customer of mine at the College Hill Farmer's Market. He and my late husband would talk low German before the market began and I would just smile. I miss him and his beautiful head of hair.

I first met Van when he had his 2 little dogs. I was walking by them and I tried to pet them - didn't happen. But, this is when I first met Van. I got to know him better through out the years. I would always see him at Kwik star getting bananas and he was so happy and pleasant to talk to. My husband loved helping with his flowers as needed. I missed him when he moved to MN and would call once in awhile and see how he was doing and then I'd report to the gals at kwik star. Today, Oct 21 I was...

I remember visiting with him in the van while driving him to Dr. appointments for his knee replacements while in NewAldaya

Such a kind, soft spoken, caring man. He will be missed. My deepest sympathy to his family.

Van was such a caring person! He was in charge of my brother and father´s funerals. I can´t express how he helped my entire family through the process. I lived in his neighborhood and would talk to him many days when out for my morning run and he would be caring for his beautiful yard. He was always positive and friendly. He will be missed by many. I will be praying for your family during this difficult time.
