John Stroo

I didn't know Mr. Stroo (other than having met him a time or two at the funeral home), but I know his son, John--and Elaine and Christine, John A., and Robert K. They're a wonderful family and John is an excellent funeral director. It was in 1976 that I first met John and his family, the year he built the funeral home.

To the Stroo family,
You are all in our thoughts and prayers during this time of sorrow.
May you be comforted in knowing that your loved one is celebrating with His Lord.I remember going to your store to get shoes and also later doing your trip to Alaska.
Our sincerest Christian Sympathy.
Lovingly
Ken and Pat 7'sma Diekevers

Dear Marge and Family:
I join all of you in celebrating John's entrance into glory. The suffering of old age is over and he is delighting in the Lord's presence. We have all been blessed to have been a part of the STroo family, and you too will continue to experience the Lord's bellessing in your lives.
The Lord's promise to you, Marge, is,"I will never leave you nor forsake you" I'm thankful for you that you are at Sunset. All my love, Agnes
