Not sure what to say?

Donna and family, we have been out of town since Christmas and just learned of Garry's passing. We'll miss Garry, but always remember "Mr. Ohanneson" as the guardian of our street. You could count on him to be in the front yard with a watchful eye on all the neighborhood kids, and a friendly wave as you come up the street. Our thoughts are with your family. He was a great man.

Donna, I too am a cousin of Garry. . My name is Don Beaver. All of us kids grew up together. He was about 7 years younger than I. But as a family we were very close, but like other families, we grew apart. Sad. He was a great kid when he was young. Our families did a lot of things together. We were poor financially but we were rich in family values and things that counted. I kept tabs on his progress thru his brother Carl. I am so sorry for your loss Donna and family. I am only...

Our thoughts are with you all. Take comfort in the many fun and happy memories you all have.

My family has been truly blessed to become part of the Ohanneson's extended family.  We will never forget the times we got to spend with Garry at the pageants and during Thanksgiving.    

Garry was an amazing person and I could see how much he loved you all...especially his grandchildren. I know the kids must be very sad and it breaks my heart.

I pray that you will have the strength you need to get through this very difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you...

I will always have the fond memory of Garry in his office, excitedly showing me all those oil maps. He was like a little boy talking about what was all going on. I had such a lovely time with Garry and Donna that day and was blessed to have met them both. John (my brother) and I agree meeting them was one of the highlights of our trip to Bakersfield.

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you and the family. He was a wonderful person and we are happy that we got a chance to know him.

He was a amazing man and will never be forgotten, I will always hold all the times I had with him dear to my heart!I'm very sorry for your lost.

Very sorry for your loss to the Ohanneson Families... may god be at your side through this tough time. Our prayers and condolences go out to you.

I'm not good with words, but want you all to know you're in my thoughts and prayers. Garry was an amazing person, for whom I respected a great deal. The Ohanneson family has always made me feel welcomed in their family, lives and home. I love you all very much!
