God has gained another beautiful Angel. It is hard to say goodbye so sudden and unexpectedly.

As the time passes, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. I pray that God keeps his arms wrapped around you!

My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
May John Rest in Peace.

- Although it's difficult today to see beyond the sorrow, May looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow.
