Oh, Johnny it was so good to see you and your beautiful family at the viewing. Your mother was such a beautiful person. She was always upbeat and she just beamed with love and friendliness!

Sincerest and heartfelt condolences to John and his family. . . . .My daughter, her husband, and their children are next-door neighbors. Since I spend considerable time with them, I'm considered by some as a "neighbor." . . . . Dearest John and Carol were two of the most-wonderful people who welcomed my daughter and her husband when they moved to the neighborhood. When they had their children, they were more like an uncle and aunt to them in their love and attention. It was always a joy to spend time with John and Carol when either of us would visit the other or just talking when we'd be in the yard. Always an extra-special treat for us in when John or Carol would bring over a huge supply of the most-delicious apples that we had ever tasted! How could they be not? John had loving and patiently grafted branches from his several species of apples to create a new and even more delicious apple! The grapes from their arbor were as perfect as the ones I had when I was a child! . . . .Roo was such a good dog in how he'd be protecting them and letting us know when someone was walking by. Sometimes, he'd drive Carol nuts in how she'd have to chase him and tell him to be quiet, but we'd often have a little laugh over that. . . . .There was a void in our lives when John died, but we still had Carol, so that was good! We enjoyed our time with precious Carol! . . . . Many people come into our lives and where some of them leave a lasting and loving imprint. Carol and John Christ were and always will be treasured special people to us!

To the Christ family, please accept my sincere condolences. May knowing that you are in the thoughts and prayers of many bring a measure of comfort. We look forward to the time when all things that cause sickness and death will be eradicated by God's Kingdom. Matthew 6: 9, 10
