Not sure what to say?

Scott, I just found out about John's passing. I know that you were very close to your brother. My prayers are with you.

John Francis was and is a permanant household name at all of the Scheffey houses. He was with Bill constantly through their teenage years and beyond. He spent some time last summer with my mother and Terri reminising. The old stories bring to memory our house in Camp Hill and the many times John was there. John had often been mentioned over the years and we all kept up with how he was doing. Deepest sympathy from the Scheffey Family.

Jake, My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.

John was one of the good guys. In life we meet all kinds of people and we are blessed when we become friends with one of the good guys. John was an old friend and I will miss him. Since John's passing my mind has been swimming in memories, some long forgotten until now. My condolences to Jake and to the rest of John's family and his friends that will miss him too.
May God bless John and comfort those that grieve his passing.
Yours, Fredrico

Jake, you have been on my heart and in my prayers... Wish we could be there with you tomorrow, but we will keep praying for strength and peace during this time of tremendous grief and sadness. I am so very sorry for your loss and those words just do not suffice... I hope you know you are loved and prayed for by many Crowes!

Scott, I always enjoyed John banter on facebook. And he never would steer you wrong when it came to music. That will all be missed. May he be bringing banter and music to a better place.

Jake: No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. I am saddened to hear of your father's passing. It is not an easy thing to accept when such a kind and loving person leaves us. May you continue to receive comfort and joy in the memories that you hold so dear. Our deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

Jake and Scott,
John was just telling me about his reunion, how it's a birthday reunion cause everybodys the same age..he's like, "come sit down and listen to this. I think you'll enjoy it". It was pretty funny listening to him tell it..I am so sorry.. John was my friend.. we were always looking for concerts to go to that we agreed on. We shared some good times and some sad ones too. John was my friend..I miss him terribly. My granddaughters just loved him. If you need anything just let...

Dear Jake and Scott -
I am so saddened by John's passing and my heart and prayers go out to you both. I enjoyed his sense of humor and being in touch with him even if only by email. I know he is with God and Elaine, Aunt Bev, and all the others waiting for him. God rest his soul.
Wishing you peace and comfort -
your cousin Ava
