Not sure what to say?

A lovely man...full of life and care for others.....I am deeply saddened. He was good to so many....Sympathies to his family.....Georgia Menghini

JR Cowan was a wonderful neighbor and friend. My partner Richard and I were both blessed to know him, and miss him very much. He was kind and generous with a great heart for others. He had a wonderful sense of humor and a personality like no other. God bless you JR!

All said above is true. You knew this man loved his life, his wife, people in general and his work. He would just let me give him a check never look at it shake your hand, say 'I like coming here'. I told him my daughter was working at the bank in Healdsburg, he said 'that little blond, I'm in love with her'. Miss him. Can still here him say from the top of my Cedar tree, 'hey you just want me to take the whole thing down?'

Our sincere sympathy in the loss of your father, Tami!

JR was an amazing man. He was quick witted . He had an amazing laugh, and a very kind soul. This world was a better place simply because he was in it. He wore his heart on his sleeve and will be missed by those whose lives he touched. God bless JR

JR was a force of Nature! Power, humor and friendship. He´ll not be forgotten.

JR had a heart of gold.One of the most kind genuine person I have ever known

JR will be missed . I have known JR since a young age but in the past 4 or more years I have seen him help my Father and my Father help him , even in passing he still gives to my Father . He would check on me knowing I had been struggling.. hear his truck horn over n over again till I came out .. n with a simle 'how are you , how ya been .. his humor and energy sometimes was exactly what I needed.. (thank you.) The stories he would share n the knowledge that we exchanged was just priceless...

JR was a True neighbor and someone who we could count on. We will truly miss his friendship and kind-hearted nature. Our sincere condolences to his family. Rob and Cherie Eliz Ford
