write to LSU athletics@lsu.edu to ask them to honor Ebert Van Buren in the Hall of Fame. They keep pushing his induction back. He is 87 years old and we (his family) want him to be honored this year!
Steve Van Buren great All-American Football player at LSU, died today at 91 years old in Pennsylvania. He was an NFL hall of famer. Steve & his brother, Ebert (my Uncle) moved to N.O. from Brit
ish Hoduras. Steve & Ebert Van Buren were the first brothers to be selected in the first round of the NFL draft until the Manning brothers. Steve & Ebert to this day, are the only brothers' to become starter
s in the NFL in their first year as Philadelphia Eagles. Dr. Ebert Van Buren (87), who has 5 children and lives in Monroe, LA. Ebert was an army veteran of WWII, received 3 purple hearts and bronze metal honor. He was also captain of LSU, All American but is still NOT in LSU Hall of Fame. Let's Honor the Van Buren Brothers by having Ebert join Steve as a member of LSU Hall of Fame this year. Please write in to LSU. The Van Buren Brothers' deserve to be in the LSU Hall of Fame together.
