John Stephen Sillick

Dear Family,

I am so very saddened about the death of John. I loved to read about all of his experiences on the farm. His writings will be sorely missed God bless all of you

My deepest sympathy to the family of John Sillick. I, as many, feel the loss of a dear friend. Reading John's column weekly, I felt a sense of renewal and appreciation for the simple things in life. His observations and manner in which he lived his life will inspire me always.

To the family of John Sillick:

I have never been so saddened and shocked by the passing of someone I didn't know. But of course I did know him and knew something of all of you through John. His writing was so warm and vivid and imaginative and somehow so comforting no matter what was in the rest of the paper. My deepest sympathies to you and to all of us on the loss of this remarkable man.

To the Sillick Family,

My deepest sympathy to you. I feel as though I have lost a member of my own family. I will miss his wonderful columns each week.

I consider myself blessed to have known John and his family even though it was only through his writing. May God bless you all.

Dear Kathy, Dylan, Ellyn & Brendan

We were deeply saddened to learn of your beloved husband & father's death. He will be missed by those who knew & loved him.

Please know you are in our thoughts & prayers.

With our love & sympathy,

My deepest sympathy goes out to Kathleen and family. While I never met John, I feel as though I have lost a family member having read his column for many years. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

John --

I never read your column first -- I always saved the best for last. Rest assured that you made a difference to me and so many people. You will be sorely missed by us all.
