I am in shock because Van Val and myself were just hanging out at a mutual friends birthday party a couple weekends ago at Cathay Pacific and then we ended up going to the Carver Den and we had such a good time he seemed fine. He was in good spirits. We danced we had some drinks laughed and talked .Vann was always the life of the party always joking and smiling just full of fun .He had a great big heart always making sure that everybody had drinks food and he was always making sure that the people around him was good. He was just a sweetheart a standup type of guy and he will truly be missed gone too soon. Rest in peace, brother sending prayers of love, comfort and strength to his entire family. I just wanted to say one more thing I loved the way he loved Valerie. He adored his sister and she adored him us expression, but they were each others road dog and I mean that with the upmost respect, they were two peas in a pod, sending some extra love out To Val because she sure had his back as well I'm sorry I missed those Sunday morning. Brunches with Val and Van. Val would have a spread and she'd call and say yup Vann is on his way he wanted this hat and other and she would make sure that she made it and yes, they both had a love for lobster.They were truly each other's keeper.🩷🩷🩷🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 yes, for everything there is a season🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
