Jan VanBeveren

Jan was a great influence and a wonderful friend .. always encouraging and up lifting ... He will be missed in our community as a coach, friend and brother .. thanks for blessing the Golden Triangle with your talents.... You were truly an amazing person...

Peace be with you !!!

My love and appreciation to the family of my hero Jan van Beveren. He taught me, when I was a teenager, what to get in life and showed me the way outside our country. He was a permanent inspiration for me. Always, when I was asked to pick an All-Time World Soccer Team, f.e. at Eurosport, ESPN, Canal Plus or La Gazzetta dello Sport, I put his name first in the team. I will never forget him with so many sweet memories.

Jan, thanks for all the great moments you gave me and rest in peace.

We willen de nabestaande veel sterkte wensen in deze moeilijke periode.
Bedankt voor alles wat je voor ons hebt betekent .
We zullen je nooit vergeten.
Toine en Karen

Wonende in Houston had ik geen idee dat er zo dichtbij zo'n grote legende leefde.
Ik wenst de familie erg veel sterkte met dit verlies.

It was my honor to have called him a friend. He was a great person of true character and integrity.

My thoughts go to the Family and friends of Mr Jan van Beveren, the best ever goalkeeper of The Netherlands.

I will keep his signed "Jan Van Beveren, Rugnummer 1" book forever in my heart.

Jan, R.I.P. and thanks for the nice memories on the soccer pitch!

Condolences to Jan's family. In my few times with him I found him above a beyond all of his great soccer accomplishments to be a gentleman with humility.
Those who have crossed paths with him are better for it.
Rest in peace Jan.

We didn't know Jan as a soccer player or coach; we knew him as one of the finest people we've ever had the honor of knowing. If everyone lived as Jan did, with class, grace, honor, kindness, and integrity, the world would be a better place. Our deepest condolences to his family and friends from all over the world, to the young players of Spindletop, and other young people he taught. His spirit will live on forever in the example and lessons he shared.

The mark that he made on my daughter's life is priceless. He was so incredibly dedicated to the Spindletop Select Soccer Club and to the young people who played there. My daughter has always felt a special bond with him and he was such an inspiration and encouragement to her. I am so grateful to have several pictures of the two of them together. What he brought to our club and to our community will always make a difference and will never be forgotten. I am so thankful that, out of all the places in the world that he could have worked and played in, he chose us and became our own superstar. Grace and peace many thanks to his wife and family.
