My Mentor Uncle Van

My mentor is my Uncle Van. He is my mentor because before he died all he wanted to do was help people. He always put others before himself. He owned an insurance company but he always made sure the customer was getting the lowest price possible. He always made sure his family and friends were safe. He died about a month and two weeks ago. He was a great person and inspirered me to get closer to God by how he went to church every Tuesday at two am so the ceramony could still be there. He loved his two girls and his wife with all his heart. he reminded me that if you help others and you belive in God good things will happen to you. He died of Cancer in his colonit might have spread but I’m not sure. I got to go to his funeral because my brother graduated from college amd we were allready down in the south. My uncle van always loved to play his music load so people outside his house could hear it. He said that music was ment to be played loud. When he died we all knew he was going to heaven no questions asked. My cousin had a baby the day after my Uncl died. After she found out there was a new baby she said when one door closes another one opens. So now when ever I here the song that has those words in it I remember Uncle Van. My Uncle died in his bed holding his wife and daughters hands. His wife told him that he didn’t have to suffer anymore that they would be ok, and I love you. Then He died. That’s why he is my mentor.
