John Burnell DeVos

I am so sorry to hear of Jim's death. We were close neighbors for many years in Libertyville. My children played with Jim's children and have many wonderful memories of the good times we all had together. Jim's first wife, Marya, was a dear friend of mine. I haven't seen Jim in many years, so I never met Frenishi. My sincere sympathies to Frenishi, John, Mark, Owen and Marya. With many hugs to them all.

I´m so sorry to hear John passed. He was such a sweetheart! I loved having him and Frenesi as neighbors at Beech Pointe. He will be greatly missed.

Thinking of all the family at this time. So many wonderful memories of a family of love and kindness. I remember the treasure chest of toys at the dentist office to the always welcoming home to hang out at in libertyville. The coolest dad to let us write all over the walls on the basement staircase. What an amazing father!

john was one of my biggest heroes in our class of 1951 at Hinsdale Township High School He was outstanding as an athlete, academics, personality, and generous spirit as Master of Ceremony at all of our Class Reunions for over 50 years. Goodbye John - someday we will all plan another Class Reunion in heaven!

Frenesi, John, Mark, Brice, Mari, May God´s peace envelop you all. I could always count on Uncle Jim for a good belly laugh and a different point of view; he was an amazing wit and had a wicked sense of humor! I shall miss him dearly.

We cannot tell you how sorry we were to hear of your great loss. Please accept our sympathy, love, and best wishes.
