I worked with Jon and Jana in Kwoi and what a lovely time we had! God bless this family for their love and sacrifices

Jon was part of my life for most of my life, since I was very young around 7 years old and into my thirties and he worked with my dad for a very long time washing windows.

Dear Jana, We were so sad to hear that Jon's life on this earth is over.

We have such fond memories of your visit last year. We were so grateful we had that time with you as it was good to touch base again after so many years. Our prayers are with you. Love, Les and Verla
