My condolences to his family, in particular his son Adam, who looked after him these past years and whom Van was very proud of.
Yes, Van moved from Fairmount to Anderson a few years ago so that Adam could look after him.

Some of James Dean's family still lived in Fairmount, and Van knew them. He had some interesting stories about those days. I was going to take a motorcycle trip to see Van in Fairmount, then he got sick and moved to Anderson. The trip got put on hold. Now, unfortunately, it is cancelled.
