Board of Directors 2011-2012
Vision and Expertise Shared from the Heart
Richard Van Hattem, Chair
Faith Church (Dyer, IN)
Recently retired from an active career, Rich Van Hattem has a fresh appreciation for how unique the retirement journey can be for each person who embarks upon it. Having spent a lifetime in leadership at National Waste Services and Allied Waste Industries, he is now finding new ways to serve and new gifts to use — in his church, his community, and his family. Since his own children were young, Rich has invested himself in solid, Christian education by serving on school boards. His involvement with Providence Life Services will allow him to expand his influence to include the other end of the aging spectrum. Rich loves spending time with his children and grandchildren, and that sense of family is important to the Providence brand.
