Dear Cathy and Family:
Arne and I were sorry to hear that John had passed away, but glad that his passing was peaceful from what Dean told us. John was a great boss at Sunds Defibrator and both of you were very kind to me. I'm sorry we didn't get to visit you at Bridge Lake but still remember you visiting me at Tolko, Louis Creek in 1995.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dear Cathy and Family: There are no words for the gratitude we feel for John's presence in my family's life. I will especially remember the kindness and generosity all you have shown to both of my parents, and especially my father when he was alone. Your family were the very definition of good neighbours during many difficult as well as happy times. We are so blessed to have landed next door. Peace be with you all.

Having John on our Höfn Board was a delight. He really enjoyed the planning discussions during the building of our new assisted living residence. John was proud of his Manitoba Icelandic roots. He encouraged my wife and I to visit his nephew's farm in Langruth and see the old steam tractors. Apparently, John loved getting behind the wheel of a tractor during his summer visits. We always looked forward to the Septemer Board Meeting and hearing John's tractor story.

Colleen & I send our condolences to Kathy and the entire Johannson family. John was a friend to us and always welcomed us, especially the good times we had at Bridge Lake. We know he is now in a better place and one day we will all meet up together.
Our thoughts and prays are with all of you and God Bless.

Cathy and Family.
Our thoughts are with you. John enjoyed life and we are all happy that we could share it with him. The stories I have heard about his younger years make me smile. He (along with Robert) gave me my first ride in a car that hit 100mph. Cheers John.

Uncle John & Aunt Cathy have always been so kind and supportive to me and to all the cousins. I will miss him dearly, and his humorous, well-meaning advice! My love to all of you.

I will surely miss John - he always arrived at the IBMP meetings before me and was the first person I greeted. Carlie and I enjoyed his company at the many events we attended together. He was overflowing with bonhomie whenever you guys returned from your annual sojourns at the cabin.
All our love
