It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Gregory "Goyo" Van Katwyk, who left this world on November 20, 2021. Born on August 2, 1956, Gregory was known for his warm personality, infectious smile, and kind heart. He is survived by his loving partner, Diego Lopez Van, who will carry on his memory and the legacy of love that they built together.

Gregory, though known as Goyo to some, preferred to be called by his full name. He was a man who could always be counted on to bring happiness into any room he entered. Described by those who knew him as "Happy Music," he had a unique ability to lift the spirits of others and make them smile, no matter the circumstance.

One of the greatest lessons Gregory shared with those around him was the importance of always making someone smile. He truly believed that happiness had a ripple effect, and by making one person smile, that joy could be passed onto others. Gregory's unwavering dedication to spreading happiness has left a lasting impact on all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

Among Gregory's many accomplishments, he was a successful entrepreneur who owned and managed his own businesses. His passion for his work and his commitment to helping others were evident in all that he did. He took pride in providing opportunities for those less fortunate and was always ready to lend a helping hand.

Gregory's legacy will forever be tied to his kindness and generosity. He was a man who made it his mission to assist the less fortunate and spread joy wherever he went. His ever-present smile will be deeply missed, but the love and happiness he brought into our lives will continue to live on in our hearts.

As we say our final goodbyes to Gregory "Goyo" Van Katwyk, we honor his memory by cherishing the moments we shared and continuing to bring happiness to those around us, just as he would have wanted. Rest in peace, dear Gregory, and may your smile continue to light up the heavens above.
