John will always have a special place in my heart & memories.

Kathy,
Doug and I were deeply saddened to hear of John's passing. Our love and prayers are with you as we contend for the comforting Grace of the Holy Spirit. We will surely miss John's warm greetings on Sunday mornings - you both have been shining examples of what it means to be genuinely friendly. I feel blessed that we have gotten to know both of you personally in such a short period of time.
With Love and support,
Angie (your Breck girl) & Doug Jenks

Kathy,
My prayers are with you and your family.I found John to be a humble man - full of wisdom. I thank God for the privilege of fellowshipping with him. I personally will truly miss him - especially from greeting me at the doors of the church. He made me feel very special. I know you know that Jesus loves you, but I want you to know, also, that I love you - too.

We were saddened to hear about John's passing. We never had the pleasure of meeting him, however his brother Russell frequently mentioned him. As an 8+ year co-worker, I could tell that Russell and John had a very special relationship. We pray that memories of their many good times together help during this difficult time.
Our prayers are with you!
