Didn't know P.J personally, but through G-ma, (Marsha) my UpperRoom sister, his beloved wife. I knew he was to be admired. My deepest condolences go out to you G-ma and your family. Remain blessed. Love to you. E. Patricia (Laurelton)

I'm so sorry for your loss. I am sure he has heard the words "Well done, good and faithful servant" - I loved playing guitar with you and him at Sandbridge Chapel.

To Sara,

Although I didn´t have the honor of knowing your father personally, from the way you talked about him each time I know he was the best father in the world. I also feel the unlimited pride, respect and love you carried for him.

I want to send my deepest condolences to you and your family.

To my dear cousin,
I'll always have great memories of camping with you at Kooser State Park in Somerset, PA.
You were always the "Cool Cousin" with your great sense of humor and always looking for adventure!

What a wonderful biography of such an interesting man. I did not know PJ personally, but I know Marsha through the Upper Room site and I know how much she loved him and is so proud of him. I can certainly understand why. What a blessing that they had nearly 50 years of marriage together. May that continue to bless your life, Marsha. And may PJ's love stay with you and Jessica, Roger, Sara, Randy, Leah, Callie, Jack, and Max as well as all of your friends and your church family. I thank God that PJ is at peace now with the Lord and filled with unimaginable joy.

I will miss PJ and his sense of humor. I did not know about his skills with woodworking. Reminded me of our great grandfather Josiah Werner.

I never had the privilege to meet PJ, but through my friendship with Marsha I felt as though I knew him. He had a funny sense of humor and was so loved by his family. Marsha, Sara, Jess and to you all I send my deepest sympathy and love. May God hold you all close through this difficult time.

PJ was such a strong loving Big Brother. Whenever I came across something to repair or fix; I called on him to see me through. His sense of humor was uniquely shared with our world, and we are all better for knowing him. I will miss my big brother so very much.
