John often called just to say hello; to make sure me and my family were okay. John never missed a holiday or a birthday. He often called just to catch up on life's events. We regularly met for lunch at a park or favorite restaurant. We´d to study God´s word and how to apply it to our lives. We spoke about our faith and share one another´s thoughts about what it meant to follow Jesus. John, today our hearts are full of grief and sorrow yet we rejoice know you are in the loving arms of our Savior.

You, Oh Lord, give us hope. Though we grieve today tomorrow we will rejoice knowing John is now in your loving arms.
