Linda my dear life long friend.
I remember the day us girls drove you to that small town to find 'the love of your life' John. You have loved him for your first love that lasted his lifetime. How special a love you both shared with everyone around you both. How excited your face was when you did find John leaning up against the building of that tiny town that you instinctually knew he was there! Shortly after married and lived happily! YOU WERE BLESSED. How happy you will be to see his face again. Your love was God given and He never takes away what He has given. John is just talking to God for a while.
You know in your heart and soul that your reunuion will definately be. I was all so moved to hear you tell me that you were hugging John and telling him you loved him when he left. You are an amazing woman Linda. I am blessed to have you as my friend. Love you!

I went to school with John and Linda. He was a great person, lots of fun. I ran into him a few years ago when I knocked on his door, looking for my client's home. I was lost. He remembered me! Linda, I know you remember me - we had great fun together in high school. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Our sincerest sympathy is extended to all family members of John, Sr. Although I never personally met him, the stories told were always of his dedication to family, friends and church. Our hearts and minds are especially with those family members known to us, Kari and John, Jr. He is with his maker and is no longer in pain. Love, Debbie and family here in Florida.
