My deepest sympathy to you , as you morn the physical loss, of Vance. But for him we rejoice ss he is now in heaven perfectly healed.
I remember a very young Vance and Julue coming to serve a Third Reformed Church in Pella, and Vance teaching the Bethel Bible series. I learned so much in that class. I count it a privelege to know this amazing couple.
Julie; I hold you and your kiddos in my heart and prayers, that you feel God's loving arms carrying you through this journey.
Many blessing and much Christian love

Dear Julie and family. The life and care of Pastor Vance will always resonate in the hearts of so many of us who benefitted and received such graceful wisdom and help in our times of need. We grew in our faith in God under his preaching, his steadfast joy, his contagious smile, and his beautiful worship. God gave us at Faith Reformed Church so many years of faithful care from him as our pastor. We thank God for him. We pray for all of the family, to be comforted and strengthened at this time of grief. From Ann Buwalda

Beautiful song with words its words of worship, beautiful testimony from your dear mom, and a beautiful story of a man who knew God well and lived by Jesus’ example. It is a strange and beautiful thing that at the same time we mourn our loss and we can also celebrate your dad’s new life in heaven. All because of Jesus.
We love you!

I am sad for those of us left behind, and grateful for Vance's entry into Heaven. With Vance being the servant leader he is, we will likely feel his prayers for each of us. Thank you Lord for sharing Vance with us and bring comfort to all of us who grieve. I remember especially all the praise team practices and his involvement in Cursillo. I share Randy Alcorn's view of Heaven and welcome Vance to overwatch us and love and care for us, John
