Not sure what to say?

John had a great sense of humor and many interesting stories. He was a fabulous illustrator and an involved father.

So sorry for your loss.
He appeared to have been a man who loved and was loved in return ....... Love never dies .

John was one of those few people who remain in your minds and hearts all life long. I was so very happy to have known him.

My heart and my prayers go out to the family of John R. Steiger. I came into their lives as a caregiver to John, in hope's that he might recover with the help of a caregiver at home. I came into their lives very late in John's, but I came to know him as a "Man's man..." Someone who embrassed the outdoors and nature in a way that many of us don't. With open eye's and mind to the beauty that life share's. God rest your soul, John and may your family find peace while you rest and wait for them...
