John Russell Specht

Extremely sorry for your loss
I remember you living behind my parents!!
God bless all remaining family. I know this is a difficult time for you.

So sorry for your loss, Prayers to you all. All my memories of Uncle John are good memories. The summer gathering of the Specht family, the October fishing weekend at Indian Lake, and Christmas breakfasts. He was always with a smile, laugh, and a funny story.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Such a wonderful guy, our neighborhood parties will never be the same. He will be so missed.

Thanks for the friendship John, many years of silly pranks and great laughs. It was a privilege to have been the Best Man at your wedding even with my then new basic training haircut. You and Nina can be so proud of your marriage, your family and your many friends. LaSalle is a long time ago now, but you made it seem like yesterday with your smile. Love you.

John was that neighbor who, upon first meeting, immediately made us feel like longtime friends. May we all honor John’s memory by carrying forward the same kindness and neighborly spirit that he gave so freely. We are praying for our Lord’s Love and Grace for Nina and John’s entire family. Rest in peace, John.

Nina. My deepest sympathy is extended to you and your family for your loss. There just aren’t any words to express this loss. Feel really lucky to have visited with John Monday, November 24 and will miss him and his glowing smile. In honor of John I will be making a donation to Tunnel to Towers.
You are in my prayers.

John was a devoted family man, a wonderful friend, and a cherished neighbor. He had the best one-liners, an unforgettable smile, and a laugh that could brighten any room. He will be missed beyond measure. Nina and family, we are holding you close in prayer and sending you love and hugs as you navigate this sorrowful time.”
