Howard Van Oss, age 91, of Holland, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Friday, June 23, 2023.
Howard was a member of Covenant Presbyterian Church (PCA) in Holland. He found great joy in building houses throughout the area. Having worked in home construction for many years, he would frequently say, “I got a lot of hammer marks in this town.” He was a man of great faith and was a loving father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend, which showed through his faithful visits to them.
Howard was preceded in death by his wife, Joan; and his siblings: John (Theresa) Van Oss, Jean (Jerold) Hulst, Trudy (Steve) Langejans, Gertrude (Art) Wolters.
He is survived by his children: Kathy (Keith) Mokma, Calvin (Jane) Van Oss, Charles (Amy) Van Oss, Karen Van Oss, Kristy (Alan) Brown; grandchildren: Jennifer (James) Addessi, Matt (Reba) Mokma, Rob (Paige) Mokma, Jeffery (Jessica) Van Oss, David (Katelyn) Van Oss, Phillip (Heather) Van Oss, Ryan Van Oss, Allie (Kyle) De Boer, Brice (Emma) Van Oss, Amy Brown; and 16 beloved great-grandchildren.
