Hi there. I know my dad isn't "here," but there's something comforting about feeling as if I can still talk to him. Maybe God wil pass along the message. ... Pops, it doesn't even feel like it's been seven years. Wow. That's really not even that long. An eyelash flutter in the span of a life, really. No wonder I can still feel my hand in yours, remember your voice, your laugh, your jokes, your smile, your eyes ... perfectly. Dad, I'm glad you weren't here through the first 2 years of the...

I miss and love you, Daddy.

I knew John from work and canoeing many years ago and in recent years would occasionally see him and Augusta while riding my bike. Both of them were so happy and friendly and would always take the time to chat and catch up on how I was doing. He had a special energy that made people feel good. I pray for comfort, peace and healing for those he loved

My prayers and thoughts are with you during this difficult time.

Brother John, gone too soon from us. He is so very missed and memories will be cherished forever. God's blessings for his wife, children, grandchildren, and loved ones in all walks of life. I am so thankful to know that he gave his life to Jesus and we will meet again.

Praying for you, Augusta, and the entire Vos family.

I am heartbroken to learn of John's accident. He was always kind and would make a point to chat with me every time we met to volunteer at The Brown Bag Project. His smiles and giving of his time and talents will be missed.

We think of all of you every day. with love, Lida and Bill
