Not sure what to say?

Lisa,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My prayers are with you.

Vicki Atterberry (Jefferies)

Dearest Lisa,
Our sincere sympathies to you and your entire family. What a blessed life we had together in Bartlesville. Your entire family was always so welcoming everytime I went to your house. Even though I knew of the responsibilites life dealt you & John at such young ages, you never viewed those responsibilites as burdens, and they weren't. You took care of family and still lived very busy, happy lives - every single day. I learned so much from your family and am so happy that...

I am so sorry to hear of John's passing. I knew him well at Sooner High. Although we lost touch after that, I did run into him in Dallas. As a cancer survivor myself, I wish I had known about his battle. My deepest condolences to his partner and family.

John, you were the best brother I could have ever dreamed of. My heart is aching. Until I see you again.... your little sister

I'll be seeing you;
In all the old, familiar places;
That this heart of mine embraces;
All day through.

In that small cafe;
The park across the way;
The childrens carousel;
The chestnut tree;
The wishing well.

I'll be seeing you;
In every lovely, summers day;
And everything that's bright and gay;
I'll always think...

To M Darling Friend Colin,
I am devastated for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you as you walk through this unfamiliar territory.
Love to you, Linda

Graduation 2013

John was a great mentor to me and the students at Gavilan College. He was always praising the work we were doing. Education has lost a great man, but his values and work will live on with all the people he touched.

John, with his always smiling face will and is sorely missed by Gavilan College staff.

John was one of my band buddies at Bartlesville Sooner and again in the Pride of Oklahoma. John was a wonderful guy, and though I did not know him as an adult I sure he was a kind, giving and caring man. My condolences to the family. Colin my sincere sympathy in your loss.

John was a great friend and neighbor. I am deeply saddened by John's passing. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to John and family.
