Dear Sharon,

I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. You, Tim and all your family are in my thoughts & prayers. May God bless and comfort you all during this very sad time. Sincerely,

Like many others I had the honor of knowing and working with John Michael in the Court System over the years. To many of us he was a friend. Bless you Michael.

I met Mike Strother years ago in courtroom J-1 at the jail. He was always funny, loyal and helpful. I will miss his big smile. My sympathy to his dear family - he always spoke so lovingly of all of you.

To the Strother Family,

I met Strother at J1. At first I was a little intimidated but soon realized he was a big teddy bear. I would go visit him in J1 from time to time. He always made me feel welcomed. I felt like he was my Dad. I will remember him always. The last time I saw him was on August 26th; I am so blessed to have know him and miss him dearly.

I just found out today about John and I am saddened as I have had many conversations with him over the years and I have found him to be a pleasant person who made me laugh. We had a lot in common as we both did time in Vietnam in the Navy and we both were det's for JSO. I'll miss him.

Our hearts are with you. I bet he and maw maw( ollie) are catching up.

To the Strother Family:
Officer Strother and I worked in J-1 for years together. We were two of a kind cause we both spoke our minds, but through it all we over came that. He was a funny guy cause he was always trying to dance. He could never pronounce my name so he named me "Kashanka". He will be truly missed. May God continue to Bless his family.
