You’re still on my mind so often Rob. A life cut short, and too soon. A smart man, with the sweetest disposition.  I hope you are resting comfortably. I miss you.

Happy Birthday Rob!  We still miss you everyday and honestly still can't believe your not here with us.  You are forever in our hearts and thoughts.  Me, mom, dad, Christina...we are all thinking of you especially today to remember your birthday and spirit.  We are releasing some balloons today that I hope you enjoy in heaven!

Still can't believe you're gone.  Miss you every day!

I am so glad we have you as an angel looking down on us. You have always been the protective older brother and friend & you will continue that in heaven. You are our hero and we will always love you...forever!!!!!

Thank you for your service to our country and for being a loyal and loving friend to the people who knew you.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. "Van" joined my department at L3 in July of 2008.  He had a talent to evaluate and correct issues while projecting a level of confidence.  He will always have a place in the team's heart and mind. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

Our condolences to the many friends and family of Van. We are grateful to have had the opportunity to spend some time with Van while he was in the hospital.  Van will always remain in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers.  Until we see each other again...Rest In Peace friend!!!

To the Van Etten family. 
Rob and I shared a flat for three months while working together at London Heathrow Airport UK. Better known as roomie, he became our UK tour guide. We got to see allot of the UK tourist attraction mainly because of Rob, he would plan the site to go see and off we went, always smiling and making small jokes, he kept me laughing allot. A wonder co-worker a great friend 
He is greatly missed.
God be with each and everyone of us in this time of sorrow

Rob, there are no words to describe the pain and emptiness I feel right now.  You have always been the typical big brother, looking out for me and protecting me and I know you still will be in my heart and spirit.  Life will not be the same without you, but I will always smile when I think of you.  Until we see each other again.  All our love!  Your sis, Natalie

Dearest Family of Robert,

I join with so many others friends and colleagues  who knew Van in offering our deepest sympathy on his passing. May you find peace and comfort in knowing that his loss is felt by all who knew and loved him.

In Sympathy,

Van you were and are my friend and colleague, you will be sorely missed.

Rest in peace Rob. I'll always remember the times we had on crew at 1SOPS in Colorado Springs.  I salute you my friend.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Van's family and friends.  He was a wonderful man and will truly be missed. He touched all of our lives.  Van will always be in my heart and I am thankful I had the opportunity to know him.

I had 14 years of a wonderful friendship with you. I will cherish those memories. I love and miss you so much.

I will miss you and love you always.  You hold a special place in my heart.  It is not going to be the same without you here, but I know you will be looking down on us and guiding us.  Bigs Hugs and Love, Krista

No one may ever understand what or why this precious life has been taken away so soon, but we are blessed to know we have another special angel to watch over his family & friends. 
With my deepest sympathy,

I miss you so much already and will love you forever, Robert.  You were a really great person, so loving and easy to be around.  I'm glad I got to spend time with you and take care of you when you needed it.  You were taken from us way too soon.  xoxo Jennifer
