John Edward Thornberg

I read of John's death and I did not believe it until I looked at the photos. I am in shock and grief. I was a neighbor and friend of John's when John lived in South Minneapolis. He was a good and decent and caring man. He gave so much love to others. If the world were all John Thornberg's it would be heaven and John is in heaven now. I want to write about something John did when I knew him and maybe it explains his compassion and caring: "John was walking home one day and a mama cat had...

I didn't get to know you very well, John, but you were one of the most sincere, genuine people I've met. I enjoyed our long cafe' conversation last winter, and remember feeling what a focused truth-seeker you seemed to be. I wish I'd gotten to know you better. Peace to you now, seeker & great spirit!

John,
I cannot believe you are gone. You were the best roommate i could ever imagine having! You were such a loving person, as well as kind and gentle! I am certainly glad that you were in my life for as long as you were! You have a beutiful soul! Your love for animals, others, and the environment was amazing! i am so glad you are at peace, now! May God give you the strength in Heaven that you needed, here, on Earth! I love you and miss you!

My Dear John, I hope your able to know now, how much you were loved, how much you are missed and how many lives you helped to live in a selfless way. How grateful I am to have been your friend and the woman in your life.

Johnny was such a wonderful person who thought of others 1st. He cared so much for my nephew and my sister. He helped my son Jeremiah practice every day for Cal Ripken baseball. Even when his back was bothering him because like I said he thought of my son's feelings 1st. I hope you are playing baseball in heaven Johnny.

May god rest your soul good buddy
