June, You and John have been on my mind lately, and I wanted to belatedly express how grateful I am to have grown up down the street from two of you. You both have taught me what it means to be a good neighbor. Wishing you peace, warmth, and comfort as you remember John this holiday season. All my love, Carter (Snyder-Samuelson) Baxter

Dear June, I'm so sorry for your loss. Cousin John's passing left me with a strong sense of loss. I remember your wedding with John and can still picture our grandmother and grandfather being present. I'll always remember John's sense of humor and, yes, levity.

I wanted to offer my sincere condolences to the Steiner family on John’s passing. Jane and I had a great friendship during middle school and your family was like a second home to me...thank you for your love and kindness. Having lost my father in March, I empathize with your loss. Mrs. Steiner - keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

The good ole days. From snowmobiling to laughs at each others homes. I remember as a kid the fun we used to have. Then we meet up again in Schnecksville. I will always remember my walks passing your home and stopping to talk about the past or how everyone is doing. I will remember John's wit and funny stories with his laugh. Always told it like it was.
You are in our hearts and prayers to you and your family.

Dear June, we're so sorry to hear about John's passing. Although we didn't know the two of you very long we considered you friends and we always enjoyed talking to you both. Frankie always would pull us into your driveway even if you weren't there. We're sorry we couldn't make it to the funeral, Darlene is having surgery to remove some skin cancer. We will be with you in spirit and we will keep you in our prayers, may God be with you in your time of sorrow and give you the strength to continue.
