Dear Shirley, Kim, Randy, and Marcy

John will be so sadly missed by all of our family. I can still remember last year talking to him on the phone and kidding about doing the polka. I said "I probably wouldn't make it halfway around the floor" and he said "I wouldn't even make it to the floor."

We will always keep John in all of our prayers. He was the greatest brother and brother-in-law anyone could ever have. Miss him so much.

During this difficult time, may you all find comfort in God's love.
Aunt Dot and Uncle Bob
