to the White family:

I heard about John through a friend, and my boyfriend went to school with John for sometime. My deepest sympathy goes out to you, I am sorry for your loss. However I do not think you lost him, for he will always be in your heart, as well as mine. God called a great angel home. He will help you get through your hard times ahead, have faith in what he does. And never forget the times with him. _God be with you. Amen.

Dear MR. & Mrs. White and family,



Although I did not know John personally I want to extend my sympathy to you. I am also a Boy Scout, with Troop 310 and I am one merit badge away from Life Scout. After hearing of John and his accomplishment and challenges in life, I want you to know, that in my book, he is the epitomy of an Eagle Scout and he is now soaring with the greatest Eagle of all.



With My Deepest Sympathy,

Tim Sherman
