Not sure what to say?

So sorry to read about Skinny's passing. My deepest sympathy to all of his family. You are in my heart and prayers. Sherry Heimerl Kurtz

Very sorry for your loss. A man with a bigger heart, I don't think you'll find. Had a laugh that made you smile. You will be missed my friend. Go with God Skinny.

You always made me smile!

Gonna miss you, Skin! You were one of my bestest friends as a teenager . . . no one had a bigger heart, and you were the same today as you were all those years ago. Gone too soon.

I have great memories of growing up with Skinny. He was a man that watched over me as he did others. I always thought of him as a protector. His hugs were always comforting, he was a great friend and I am very sorry to the entire family and friends for his loss. May he rest in peace.

So sorry for the loss to your family. David was a classmate of mine.

I am so very sorry for the loss of a very special man. For several years as a young adult I was fortunate enough to be included as the only girl in the great group that included 'Skinny,' 'Taco' and Shawn. David was always so sweet and happy. I have many memories of having the guys over for a meal or a party. Rest happy my dear friend. -Gina (Schumacher) Olson

I have fond memories of growing up with all of the Jansma's; I believe I used to babysit several of you. I am so very sorry for your great loss. May God bless and keep you close in the difficult days ahead ~ Much love, always - Glenda "Sud" Westra Zielski
