Steven Van Zandt, who was one of the pallbearers, told The New York Post that Pastore 'was one of a kind, and we'll miss him very much.' Van Zandt said that he and his spouse Maureen chatted with Pastore the day prior to his passing. The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for Van Zandt for further comment on the story. Pastore's daughter Renee Pastore remembered his generous nature in a moving speech she delivered at the memorial, according to The Post. Both Steven and Maureen Van Zandt had taken to X with statements in memory of Pastore amid news of his passing.
