Not sure what to say?

Dear Cindy & Family,

I was deeply saddened to hear today of John's passing from my children. John was a terrific person full of fun and energy. My fondest memories of John was his fun nature and love for his family. I enjoyed playing golf with John on several occassions and it did not matter how we hit the ball it was just the fun we had enjoying the day. My deepest condolences to you and your family. John will truly be missed by all.

My prayers are with the Family. I worked with John at Bell Atlantic. I am sorry for your loss.

Cindy and Family,

We are deeply sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of working along side John at Verizon for several years. He was truly a great guy, and a people person. I always enjoyed working with John. His dynamic personality and sense of humor would light up a room. He made us laugh alot and got us through some tough moments at Verizon. On behalf of myself and my family we wish you strength through this difficult time.

I feel so so sorry for the Firtek family because I am Brian's classmate, Ashley. he wasn't in school I can't imagine how sad the family feels.

Dear Michelle, we are so sorry to hear about the passing of your father, you and your family are in our prayers during this time of mourning, we know that you will be strong and get thru this with the help of all your friends here in 7B.

Cindy,
I am so sorry to hear of John's passing. I had the pleasure of working with John for many years at Verizon. John spoke of you, Michelle and Brian quite often, and it was clearly evident how much he loved all of you. John was a wonderful man, a man of the utmost integrity and compassion; he was a good friend. I am so sorry for your loss. May God's peace be with you always and sustain you in this time of sorrow.
Sincerely,

Cindy, Michele and Brian,
I have known your husband and father for about two years. On many occassions, he expressed his love for each of you and that you were his world. He had a great impact on me over the past year. He showed great bravery and a positive attitude. He will always be in my thoughts and prayers. I was lucky to have known John and to be able to call him a friend.

Rest in Peace, John. You will be greatly missed. Our deepest sympathy to Cindy, Michelle and Brian. You are in our prayers.
