The Enterprise Greensboro MD March 19, 1942
Warren Van Sant
Druggist, Dies
     This town and community was shocked and saddened Monday morning to learn 
of the sudden death of Mr. Warren Van Sant, druggist, who succumbed at his 
home on Railroad Avenue from a heart attack between 1 and 2 o'clock a. m.  He 
was 69 years of age.  Not feeling well Mr. Van Sant had planned to visit a 
physician on Monday; although he was able to be at his drug store.  After 
retiring Sunday night he called Mr. Irvin Brumbaugh, his next-door neighbor, 
saying that he was ill, whereupon Mr. Brumbaugh called the doctor and W. 
Hyland Van Sant, a son of Denton, but the well-known druggist died within a 
short time.  He had lived alone most of the time since his wife died several 
years ago.
     Mr. Van Sant died as he lived, a humble and clean life, and will be 
greatly missed from his store here where every customer was always greeted 
with a smile.  He was born in Galena, but had been a druggist in Greensboro 
for the past 45 years, coming here from Baltimore.
     His is survived by four sons--Bayard, of Philadelphia; Hyland of Denton; 
Comegys, of Newark, N. J.; Irving of Forrest Hills, N. Y., and three 
grandchildren.  He also leaves three brothers, L. R. Van Sant of Galena; 
Bayard Van Sant, of Washington, D. C., and Irving Van Sant of Wilmington, 
Delaware.
     Funeral services were held yesterday afternoon at St. Paul's Methodist 
Church in church of pastor, the Rev. Ray W. Kirwan.  Interment was made in 
Greensboro Cemetery.
