He was a hell of a guy Ginny, fiery and creative in a uniquely passionate way. A huge part of that Staten Island wave of creativity during the 80s-90s that I have many great memories of him being part of. We all cheered each other on in our raucous endeavors. The world will be much less colorful now that he’s left it.

So sorry that Tim has left his loving home for awhile, but am convinced he’s with all of us for the time being, Ginny. The condolences that people who knew him are beautiful and very thoughtful. Obviously, Tim was loved. The “new kid on the block” is joyfully being embraced by all the Van Loans, including our Mom, Dad, brother Frank, and Lassie et al. pets.
I’m sorry not to have spent more time with you, Tim and Molly.
