I will always remember John and Ernie as 1 of the first people we meet in Dodge City. John and my dad were on the Radio for several years "Coffee with the Parson". You ALWAYS knew where John stood in his daily walk with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May you get your basket of "Rose Stems" from Jesus when you get there John. May God Bless You and your Family. Mike an Beth Lorett

Ernie and family, May God comfort each one. Our parents were blessed to serve the Lord with you at Park View. Hugs from Brazil. There wasn't a place to put an address outside the U. S.

John clearly spoke the message that Jesus left. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. During his journey through life he brought change to many. He often said life depends on the dog you pet. The white dog or the black dog. Pet the white dog and peace that surpasses all understanding will be yours. Pet the black dog and the wounds that come may never heal. Mary and I will miss his commanding presence in our lives and we look forward to being with him again.
John...
