It seems so hard to believe that it is already 3 years since you have been gone. I am thankful for the times we were able to share. You are no longer in pain but, I am sure you are smiling though comforted by how you would be that you have a beautiful granddaughter. Miss you big brother. Love, Lisa

Dear John, your laugh will be missed, your smile will be missed as well as your sense of humor and kindness. But at least we all have our Treasured Memories of you. Farewell good friend we will meet again. You left us way too soon.

Sweet 16

John, I was comforted to find out that you had found peace before your unexpected passing. My heart is full of sadness at your loss but I will embrace memories with you and pray that you are now dancing with Mom like you did at her retirement party. May God bless you and open his arms to you in his kingdom. With love, your sister Ceil

To my brother John, Wish I could give you a hug right now but, since I can no longer do that I will always hold onto the memories we shared. You will always be loved and missed by me, for that I am grateful and knowing you were at peace makes it a little easier. I Love you big brother.
