Today my husband told me that Van Johnson passed away at 92 which he was reading in his room from the internet. I started to cry. I went downstairs and found the article on my computer in USAToday which said Van Johnson had passed away peacefully of natural causes. When I read that I knew he had found out the truth.

I still cry though as I haven't spoken to him in 48/50 years. We both lost our best friend. He his 2nd wife and son. I thought I had passed him two years ago here in Toronto. As I remember holding back my tears. I'm sure he recognized me and he would have been holding back his tears too. We both had made a promise to never give up until the truth was found.

It makes me smile to remember being a part of his engagement proposal to his 2nd wife. I wrote about it a few years ago on this site and dedicated it to him. I hope someone read it to him before he passed away. He will always be in my heart along with his 2nd wife and son Charles.
