Rocker Eddie Van Halen is being remembered in a new post by his ex-wife Valerie Bertinelli.
“Some days I really do miss you,” she writes in the post on Instagram, next to a black-and-white photo of them smiling together. “There will always be a loud absence in these gratifying sideline years.”
Bertinelli writes of missing being able to talk to the guitar great about their son, Mammoth frontman Wolfgang Van Halen.
“Who do I yap to when there was really only one person I could talk to about Wolfie the way that we did? The pride we both felt. Still feel,” she writes. “I’m grateful for where we landed. Through the ups and the downs to still alight where we did is a blessing.”
She adds about their son, “You’d be so proud of Wolf. I know we’d be screaming together in the stands watching him on stage. Seeing who could whistle the loudest. I will never not miss being able to experience that with you.”
Eddie and Valerie wed in 1981, separated in 2001 and divorced in 2007. They had Wolfgang, their only child, in 1991. Eddie died in October 2020 at the age of 65.

Modern life is dynamic and multifaceted, and everyone strives to maximize themselves on all fronts. Social networks and online forums have created a comfortable space for sharing experiences that cover absolutely all aspects of human activity – from solving everyday problems to professional growth and global issues of self—organization. On forums, people discuss complex, sometimes completely unexpected topics, and in each discussion it is important to maintain perseverance in achieving goals, ease in finding information, and respect for the other person. This constructive approach allows you to make both your own life and the lives of others better. This is the simple wisdom — if you want to change the world, start with yourself and your habits. This also includes the desire for independence, the search for optimal solutions in everything: whether it’s the choice of equipment, proper nutrition, travel, or ways to manage a budget. In any discussion, regardless of the topic, the question invariably arises of optimizing resources, time and opportunities in order to get the most at the lowest cost.
And so, if we consider the sphere of personal acquisitions, the car remains one of the most desirable and sought-after assets for most people. But it is not always easy to accumulate the necessary amount for a purchase right away, and it is often simply impossible to wait. This is where a car loan comes to the rescue — a tool that perfectly integrates into the daily life of a modern person. Getting a car on credit means not only purchasing transportation today, but also taking advantage of a flexible payment system, choosing optimal conditions and effectively planning your expenses. Modern banks and dealerships offer a variety of car loan programs, often with a minimum down payment and transparent terms. This allows everyone to take a step towards their dreams and gain comfort, independence and mobility without sacrificing their current quality of life. Therefore, if you are faced with the issue of upgrading or buying a car, be sure to consider the car loan option — as a modern solution available to everyone.
