Documentation:
* Received an email in 2003 from Brenda Lafflam at RAYLAFFLAM@aol.com. The info on this line, spouses, children, etc. is from her email.
* Kenneth Roaten has Van's date of death as Oct. 14th. That is also what is on his tombstone at Hopewell United Methodist Church, however the McPeters Funeral Records have his date of death as Oct. 16th and date of funeral as Oct. 17th. I'm guessing the 14th is correct.
