Tristan Van had several distinctions &#8211; nurse, bicyclist, curmudgeon with a heart of gold, and the first transgender employee at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville. His colleague and friend <a href="https://www.instagram.com/neilsbear/">Neil Stinson</a> remembers Tristan and the token from him he keeps. We can&#8217;t always know what&#8217;s inside a person or a pepper shaker. </p> <p>If you are moved by this episode remembering the life of Tristan Van, we encourage you to make a donation to the Tennesee Equality Project in his memory. <a href="https://www.tnep.org/tristan_van">This page</a> was set up by his friends and family as a way to honor his legacy.</p> </div> <div class="content-padding"> <p> Official site: <a href="http://mementostori.show" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">mementostori.show</a><br /> Instagram: <a href="https://instagram.com/mementostori">@mementostori</a> </p> <p class="grey">Show Music: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ryanbreegle/">Ryan Breegle</a></p> </div>
