Dear Lynne and Family, I am deeply sorry for your loss. But as you grieve the loss of John, as a loving husband, caring father and dear friend to many, be rejoiced and comforted in knowing he was called home by our Loving Father for all eternity. As the pain of John’s earthly presence fades, may it be replaced by the fond memories and the caring spirit of John. To me, personally John’s legacy has inspired a new purpose and courage. May God bless you all, with love from your friend, Marian
Sheree and family, so very sorry for your loss. It is so difficult to lose a sibling, an integral part of your memories and history of growing up. Please accept our sincere condolences and prayers for you and your family. JoAnne and Ken Taylor
Sheree, we are so sorry to hear of your loss. Our prayers and sincere condolences to you and your family. It is so difficult to lose a sibling, someone who shares all your memories of growing up. It brings back memories of Tom and the time we spent together helping each other cope with his death. I feel your pain and will keep you all in our prayers.
Lynne, I am heartbroken. I pray that the angel’s of the Lord will surround you and your family in this trying time. I considered John my best friend and I will surely miss him. If I can do anything for you, let me know. My cell number is 904-207-4872. He is in a much better place than anyone can imagine. I firmly believe that.
Lynne,
As your thoughts were with me when my late husband Bob died 11 years ago, my thoughts are with you and your family at this sad time.
Your kindness was always appreciated at the bank.
Dearest Lynne and Family,
What a battle John and you fought over the past three years. We feel privileged to have shared that journey with you. John has given us all a lesson in courage, strength, and patience. So have you. While here on earth, he knew you walked every step with him and that was such a comfort to him. There is no doubt that through John’s sufferings, he is in heaven with Jesus and Mary and his loved ones who went before. He was such a model for all of us and will be so fondly. We have lost a wonderful friend and brother. God be with all of us.
Dear Lynne, We want to express our sincerest sympathy to you and your family. We pray that you will feel the peace of our Lord surround you during this time and the days ahead. Our love and prayers.
Lynne, Richard, Tiffany and Todd
I want you to know how sorry I am at this sad time in your life. John was a wonderful husband and step-father. Sending love and prayers your way for comfort and peace.
Lynne and children, Sheree and Art,
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time. I was dreading hearing this news but he is in a better place now .
Looking back, meeting Lynne and her children had to be divine intervention – they fulfilled his life . John
( Johnny as I knew him) was more than a cousin – he was a big brother to me when we were young . What I will miss the most is his sense of humor. That is how I will remember him – making us all laugh. I am sorry I am unable to get away from California but please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers and those of my wife Andee and daughters Rebecca and Cynthia.
I am so sorry for your loss. It’s really hard to find the right words to say at moments like these. But one thing I can say that i know will bring you comfort to you and hope for the future is God’s word the bible. I too lost someome very dear to my heart and felt very lost and confused. The word of God is powerful…and it will bring you clarity to all the unanswered questions regarding death. Is so comforting to know that our creator cares for us individualy and he promesis that one day no resident on the on the land will say Iam sick will say I am sick Rev 21:3, 4, Rev 37: 9-11. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Take care.
