Not sure what to say?

My condolences to the Leiter family. John and I were friends and hunting buddies up in Potter county back in the 50's and 60's. Your dad, Hilda, Dale, and Pearl Maguire visited with us when in San Antonio.

John was a dear friend who always wanted to know how I was doing everytime I saw him. I came to know him by serving him at the Ranch House Restaurant starting, many years ago. He always said the Ranch House had the nicest waitresses, but we all felt he was one of our sweetest customers. And of course he always wanted a hug. I myself will truly miss him. I would like to express my condolences to his Family. Sincerely, Crystal Louden

John was my neighbor for 13 years. He was generous enough to let me have my garden on his land from day one. He used to tell me that I was his favorite neighbor. I really liked him a lot, and I miss him already. He was a good man and kept an eye out on everything going on. He made me laugh. He made this world a better place, and that's his legacy. I bet he's telling God a joke right now!

Lori, Tami, Jenny, and Kathy My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this time. I want to start by saying thanks so much for sharing your dad with me He sure was a great man and will never be forgotten I have so many Great memories as a kid working for your dad on the farm and going to the buffalo restaurant for coffee going to auctions with him and lambie swails and he always treated me like one of the family I just have so many great memories of him and they will never be...

You have my deepest sympathy. John was a good man. I have known him ever since he was dating your Mother. I was Doris's best friend when we were growing up and I spent many nights at her home and spent a lot of time with both your parents. He was always a lot of fun. Keep all your happy moments in your memories and talk about them often with each other. God Bless all of you.
