I was very lucky to meet Ivan in the summer of 2007-2008 when I was 12 years old. I remember an incredibly warm, kind, gentle, and fun human being who welcomed me into his home with Josie. It was a summer full of sun, nature, and family that I know I will remember fondly for the rest of my love. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this very special service for Ivan. I wish I could have been there. Sending lots of love to everyone who knew and loved him.
