John F. Schilling

Happy Birthday John I haven't written in your legacy for awhile it's too painful IMiss you so much l know you are still near me every day when that Cardinal comes on my deck I love you!!

Grandpa, I recently discovered some old VHS tapes with you in them. Seeing your smile and hearing your voice was the perfect dose of joy and euphoria I needed. I'm now 31 years old (yes, you read that correctly), and still maneuvering through life, figuring out my future endeavors. Also, doesn't help my sanity that our Twins, Vikings, and Wild have yet to bring home a championship, but I think we're close to seeing one. Grandpa, please give me a sign you're with me. Please give each of...

Hard to believe it's going to be 20 years in a few days since you left Dad. There is a large void in my heart that has never been filled and never will be. I carry as much anger and confusion today regarding why you were taken as I did 20 years ago. I miss you dearly Dad and I know you are with me in the woods...

John, Well today is the big "80". I didn´t think I would make it this long,but I did. We went out Friday for a great dinner as Jackie was leaving for out of town today These last years since you been gone have not gotten any better I still miss you and long just to hear your voice or feel your touch. I hope it won´t be too long before we are together again,Please pray for me. I LOVE YOU!!

Grandpa, As I'm avoiding my night of strenuous school work, for some reason I had this random thought of you. I decided to search the internet to see if I could find your obituary, and here I am. Of course there are many things I could update you on but this would turn into a novel. Even now, at the age of 27, I still have these moments where I find myself thinking about you, as I'm sure everyone else in the family has. But most of those moments where I think about you, are moments where...

It's coming up on 16 years without you Dad and I miss you as much as I did the day that you left. This time of year is always tough as I relished our hunting time together and I continue to uphold our tradition of getting out although it's just not the same without you. You are and always will be in my heart...
