In Memoriam

John "Ed" Lemons

10/2/1954 - 4/3/2025

As we start a new year it is hard to go on without you with us.

You looked forward to each new year because it was a time for transformation.

A time to release the past, embrace the present, seek inner renewal and live with a purpose.

One of your favorite songs was "Changes" by David Bowie.

These two verses will forever stick with us.

Time may change me, but I can't trace time.

See you again!

Love,

Jenny, Alyvia, Shannon, Shawn & Lemons & Gannon Family
