Not sure what to say?

I only met John very late in his life, shortly before he died. But he was so kind to me and such a gentle soul! I have kept him in my prayers every day since, asking God to keep him close. There was just something about him that radiated Goodness. Even though I knew him for such a short time, I felt his presence in my life. Thank you for including me in this remembrance.

I worked with John at American States. He was a great claims manager and a well-respected member of the management team.

I am so very sorry for your loss! I knew John for such a short time, but he was always so kind and thoughtful. He was definitely proud of his family! There just are no words to console you for such a loss! I know he is in a good place watching out for all of you still!

I have very fond memories of John at the Ohmer gatherings. Barbara was my confirmation sponsor, and I looked up to her as my role model. She chose a good husband. They are missed.

May you find strength to endure in this time of grief. I am very sorry for the loss of your love one. Please trust in the God of comfort and he will sustain you. Psalms4:11
