Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear of John's Passing but I know he will be welcome in heaven with his Lord and Master. Will be thinking of the family nd the familiesin this time of John's passing. Marilyn(Holcomb)Cox, Chetopa,Ks.

We will be there in spirit on Thursday for John's service. We cherished the Sunday School class, of which John gave so completely of himself, and were so often touched by his insights and the emotion that he showed when speaking of our Lord. Mary Ellen, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers so much. John was a treasure, a genuine "John Deere".
our love, Karen and Garth Kennedy

My last memory of John is him getting tickled about a dog running loose at the Goss Cemetary south of Phelps, MO. It seems I have this illness too - laughing until you cry at something. I will miss seeing him. He was my first cousin on the Holcomb-Crandall side to pass away and it makes me more aware we should treasure each day.

Sorry to hear of John's passing, but know he is free of pain and happy to be with his heavenly father. I remember the many famiily times and the football games the men had, and the laughter.

We are sorry to hear of John's passing. I remember a lot of good times we had when we were younger playing football etc. Our sympathy to the family

So sorry to hear about John Gardner's passing. We enjoyed getting together for mother's 90th birthday. I only wish we could have done things like that more often. Our sympathies to Mary Ellen and the family.

I really enjoyed visiting with Gardner at Aunt June's 90th birthday party this year. I learned so much from him in just a short evening. I'm so sorry that I won't be able to do that again.

For such a life as this, we can all celebrate with joy!

With Love and Sympathy to All Who Feel His Loss,

Jeanne Crandall
