Not sure what to say?

Dear Laura, Colin, and Clare,
I'm so sorry for your loss. My family always enjoyed our time with yours.
John was a great friend, always smiling and eager to participate or help. I consider the swim family among my most cherished lifelong friendships, the Chappells very high on the list.
My prayers are with each of you for comfort and strength.

I worked with John both before and after joining Stress Engineering. It was always a pleasure to interact with him. He made working seem like fun. He will be truly missed in this life but look forward to seeing him again someday. May God bless his whole family.

Laura, Colin & Clare: Bryan and my hearts are heavy and sad. We are keeping all of you in our daily prayers asking God for peace and comfort. We know we will see John in heaven one day. Please know that we are here for you if you need anything. Love Bryan and Cindy

Laura-we are so sorry to hear about John. You, Claire and Colin are in our prayers. We pray for comfort and peace.
Love and hugs. Brenda

John has been an incredible colleague, mentor, and friend to all of us at Stress. John's wisdom, intelligence, humor, and camaraderie will be sorely missed. He leaves behind fond memories and an example to the rest of us in character, fortitude, and selflessness. We are praying for Laura, Colin, and Clare in this most difficult time. Our hearts are aching for you.

I worked on many Offhsore oil projects with John. I trusted his judgement and I appreciated his positive attitude whatever the situation we were in
John was a good engineer and a good man.

Laura, my heart hurts for you, Colin and Clare. You are all truly in my thoughts and prayers.

Our hearts are breaking for y'all's loss. He will always be with you in your hearts and looking down on you forever. May God help heal your hearts over time. Much love and hugs. George and Gretta Karker

John will be missed

He was a joy to spend time with!
I will miss him in and out of the pool.

I will keep his family in my prayer.
Peace
