To John's Beloved Family,
Our deepest sorrow, and at the same time a celebration, in the passing away of John to his eternal reward. In the words of St. Francis, "it is in dying that we are born to eternal life"! We mourn and pray for him and for all of you left behind.

I am sadden by this news, however I know my dear nino is in heaven enjoying holy paradise as Jesus promised His followers. I am most grateful for my nina & nino for sharing time with me in my childhood days. Such loving, caring, kind and sweet individuals, truly sincere in all their abouts.

Frank, Tita, Toni, Gerri, John, and the extended Kolta Family,

Our heartfelt condolences from My Family (Edward and Maria *r.i.p. Manibusan, formerly from Agana Hts) To Yours. Growing up my siblings and I have known all of you and had so many wonderful memories living in Agana Heights, but the one clear memory was seeing your moms smile and your dads hardworking nature around the storefront or Laundromat. He would kindly greet every passerby. He was a wonderful man. He will always be remembered in the hearts of many... & He is now watching over you and i'm sure is thankful for all his accomplishments, but is most proud of all of you and your families. May God Bless You During This Difficult Time.
Sincerely,
Kinney and Annie Manibusan Blas (Pacifica, CA)

Dear Frankie, Tonette, Tita, Loling, Johhny, Gerianne and Joe -

Our deepest sympathies and prayers to all of you. Your dad (my Uncle John) was a wonderful man with a heart of gold and amazing values, which he passed on to each and every one of you.

We will cherish the memories we have from your dad's visits to California and our visits to Guam as well as the stories my mom, Auntie Nenang and Sister Alma have all shared with us about their oldest brother.

I wish we could be there for the services but know that we have you all in our prayers and will continue to say the rosary nightly with my mom.

We love you all -
Patty, Asa, Christian and Lauren

Our Kotla Family, We are so sorry to hear of Uncle John's passing. Know he'd been ill, so God was ready for him and he lived a long, great life. He always had a smile and was such a wonderful person. We've got so many happy memories of him & Aunty Lole when we were little and then as adults. He was a special guy. Wish we could be there to share prayers, hugs, etc. Gerianne was sure a big help for Mom's rosaries at Aunty Ling & Uncle Tony's house every day. Thanks. We're there in spirit for you all.

To our Kotla cousins, it is sad to hear about Uncle John passing, but his time has come and he lived his life to the fullest. We cherish the times we shared preparing our reunion book and without his persistence, we would have never been able to document our family tree. Our children and grandchildren are now able to trace their roots thanks to Uncle John's guidance. Thank you all for sharing him with us. Our love and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

My condolences to you and your family on the loss of your father. He was a man with lots of fulfilled dreams that will live on in your lives. His journey here on earth has come to an end but will continue with God. He is just a heartbeat away.

To my Kotla Family,
It was great to have known Pop. He was such a sweet man and who was so easy to socialize with. He taught me a lot about my ancestors and for that, I am so grateful for. I can still remember back when we would come around the laundrymat and we would just sit around talking to him. He made us laugh and he told us stories of the family. I know that he is now in a better place than we are but it still breaks our heart to lose a love one. Please know that you are all in my heart and prayers and wish I can be there to help in any way. Please extend our condolences to all. Take care and God bless.

Love and prayers,
Dee, Eddie & kids

There is always a question, "WHY?" Please don't let it consume your life. Adam and Eve did it but Jesus will clean up their mess. Read Isaiah 11:6-9, also 33:24. Isn't that a wonderful picture to visualize? You will be able to see your loved one being among that beautiful picture.
sincerely,
