In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My oldest son Jerry and Bob were best friends through high school and my middle son, Scott was friends with John. Not to long ago we were talking and laughing about all the mischief the two of them could get into when together. My entire family sends you all of our love and prayers at this sad time in your life.

To the Garecht family,
I am deeply saddened by the news of Johns passing. Although I don't know much about what life was like for John as an adult, I do hope and pray that he found peace with God before departing this world. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I pray that the Lord will wrap his arms around you, and you may feel and know his great love, grace and mercy during this difficult time.
God Bless you all,
