To all who have been nice enough to sign the Guest Book of John C. Rusin. A month has passed, and it's still hard to believe that he has left us. I'll be sitting at my desk or at home, and I'll still think "Wonder What Dad Thinks About That" then RE-Thinking "Wonder What Dad WOULD HAVE Thought About That"

Still missing you, and always will, please Guide us as you always have. Watch over us and keep us (your loving Family) safe. So Good thoughts to all, and to all a Healthy Life.

Love, MAR

While you will always be missed and in my thoughts, I know that you will be watching over my shoulder every step of the way. Roll a 300 up there in Heaven for me!

Dear Grampappy,



We all miss you already. I'm sorry you weren't with us long enough to see your next great-grandchild: But I know when Jonah is ready to come out, you'll be with him, keeping his safe and strong. Please watch over all of us and put in a good word up there. We need your help now more than ever.



We Love You,



Bob, Angel, and Noah, (and Jonah too)

Dear Rusin Family,

Gosh, soo sorry to hear!! All my love to you all!! I wrote this and I will send Mar a few copies. Much love to you all!!



In an instant I was gone,

It is with the Lord that I belong.

My life long and complete,

It was Him that I was to meet,

He came to me with His arms opened wide,

Into His embrace I moved, feeling safe inside.

For all the worries and the trials for which I had here,

Were dissolved in an instant, I knew I had nothing to fear.

You may feel lonely when I am gone.

But I know in my heart that you are strong.

You have only to look around you, dear,

To see that I will always be near.

You will feel my caress in the warn sun's ray.

You will feel my kiss in the gentle rain of May.

You will never be alone as long as you can hear,

The swish of an angel's wing in your ear !!
