With a heavy heart, please accept my deepest condolences. While words may fall short expressing my sorrow, I am honored to have known Mr. Van Wassen. He had always welcomed me into your family’s home and cheerfully played along with my jokes as “Bob”. Even now, I still think of Mr. Van Wassen whenever I hear about the Steelers. His friendly nature has left a mark on my heart that I will always carry. My heart is with you, Krista and the Van Wassen family. With much love, Teena Nguyen

Toby was quite the guy !! With all that he has endured, I, for one, never saw him not face adversity with determination, a smile and an helping hand.

Lots of love,
