'Dear people. 
I'm Lieven Van Daele from Belgium Liedekerke and locate the descendants of my great-uncle Herman Van Daele. He lived in San Antonio Texas and grew vegetables. He also drilled the first well and was a stadium named after him. His daughter Maria married some Mabrito, Laura Louise married a certain Rips. I would like these people inligtingen about their children, little children ... to complete my family tree. 
Thanks and best regards.

'We were privileged to serve as pastors of Van and Rauz for a number of years. They always treated us with love and respect. Their generous giving to the 
church and our family was always deeply appreciated. Their faithfulness will now be rewarded, as the Lord declares unto them, "Enter now into the joy of the Lord, ye good and faithful servants." These dear friends 
will always be remembered by the Gray 
family. To the children, Judy, Van, and Marc, we would encourage you to keep up the good fight until you see your parents, again. They will be waiting for you.'

'Van was a gentleman at all times, and 
highly respected by his customers and 
his competition in the territory he 
traveled. I traveled with a women's shoe 
line in roughly the same area as he did 
with a men's Western boot line. We 
crossed paths occasionally and had coffee together over the years, but we 
had no idea that years later Joyce would 
meet Rauz, and we knew many of the same 
people, all of whom think fondly of Van 
and Rauz. We shall miss them. 
Joyce and Carrol Meyer'

'Knowing Van as a business associate and as a friend is a memory we will cherish. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones.'

'I will always remember the special interest and kindness that Van and Rauz showed to my family and I. I am certainly richer for having known them. May they find peace and joy in the presence of Jesus.'

'With our deepest sympathy...Thinking of you and hoping tomorrow brings comfort and peace.

'To the Mabrito boys: Marc, Scott and Van "Jr", I am so sorry to see that your father passed away. I enjoyed doing business with him since 1976! He would stop by the office to either pay his premium, visit or just get some chocholate mints. He'd laugh that his wife didn't want him to have any but he couldn't resist!

'I have many happy memories of the many summers spent at Camp Alzafar with VanDaele. We played tennis, hiked , swam in the Guadalupe. It was a very happy time in my life and I will never forget the memories.'

'My Condolences go out to you. I don't know if you remember me, but I use to help Van Daele's Aunt when she was the principle at Carvajal Elementry School back in the 1950's from when I was a sixth grader till high school. I use to also do Some baby-sitting for your father and mother when you boys were younger. Judy, you were in college and I rarely new you but did see you from time to time. My heart goes out to all of you at this time. It is good to know though that he is now with Rauzia his beloved wife, and both are now watching over you from heaven. 
God bless, Christina C. Day, formerly Christina Calvillo'
