Dear Jessen Family,
My mom told me about John. I have so many amazing and wonderful memories of John. The fun family barbeques at Charlie’s house, our amazing fishing adventures and the many life lessons I learned from him when I was a young man.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Dear Beth and family,
Lynn and I offer our heartfelt sympathy on the loss of your beloved husband and father.

Daddy,

You were a brave and courageous man. You taught me many values to get thru the hard life that we all live. You have been my rock for so long. My only hope is that you did not suffer. We will take good care of Mommy, we know how much you cared and loved her.
You have been the greatest Dad and I would give anything just to have a few more hours with you. My life has a void in it now that you are gone. Please continue to guide us like you always have. My heart breaks...
