Alvin Edward Van Wagenen
July 12, 1945 - August 5, 2026
Sadly, we got word this morning that Al Van Wagenen BHS '64 passed away last night (August 5, 2026). His full name was Alvin Edward Van Wagenen.
At this time, we do not know of any details or of any Memorial Service arrangements.
He was widowed I believe, and had two grown children (I think a boy and a girl). He lived in Burbank, just right around the corner from us.
Such a great guy with a wonderful sense of humor.
Pam and Jon Kirkwood '64
