My name is Alan Cook, and I am the secretary of Inland Vans Berdoo, a So. Cal. club and the oldest club to still hold regular meetings. I am a charter member, one of the original 2%ers and I drive a 1966 Chevy flatwindow van called the "Dirty Ol Van". I would like to thank your secretary for giving us a voice in your website. We are still trying to get the word out that our club has been honored with being inducted into the Route 66 Cruisin Hall of Fame - the first and only "car" (shudder) club to even be considered.
I would welcome your input, comments,etc.to be put on our forums section of our website "www.inlandvansberdoo.com" then click on Inland chatter on the home
page. Check out all the sections, we have vanners from all over writing in, and welcome any true vanner - 2% or otherwise. ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!!

Tony King passed away, after a long
illness. A memorial service was held on Friday, August 24, 2007 at
the Beckman-Williamson Funeral Home in Cocoa Beach, Florida. A remembrance
of Tony was held at Jonathan's Pub, across the street, after the
service. Uncle Tony was a member of Central Florida Vans, and a past
President of the Florida Van Council. |

From the memorial service booklet:
Why cry for a soul set free
Miss me a little - but not too long
Remember the love we once shared
Miss me, but let me go
For this journey that we all must take
And each must go alone
It's all part of the Master's plan
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds
Miss me, but let me go.
We will always remember you Dad.

Hello,
My name is Michelle Coleman (Garey). I grew up vanning with my parents
Linda & Jim Mullane. I was looking at your pictures and can't believe
Steve Capps got remarried. That's Great!!! Also the picture of Quinton White.
He
has not changed in all these years. I used to baby-sit his children
Stephanie & A.J.. They were only about 2 yrs & 5yrs old. I was glad
to see that Lew &
Agnes' names were there too. Congratulations on the new Grandchild.
She is so beautiful!!! Well the reason I'm e-mailing you is to get in touch
with Steve Capps. He was so good to me growing up and I would like to talk
to him. So much time has passed, lots to talk about. I would really
appreciate it.
Thank You,
Michelle Coleman (Garey)
P.S. I belonged to Rhondajue vans! (Long time ago)
My E-Mail address is garey8381@comcast.net
Thanks Again!!!
