I had the pleasure of working with both Candice & Jon at Verizon. Both of whom were very kind and caring to me when my niece had cancer. They both sincerely cared about my situation and were great friends to me. I am so very sorry for your loss. What a wonderful and caring person she was. Their love was something to be admired. Im sure their reunion brought alot of peace and happiness to their souls. Love you both. Thanks for touching my life with such impact.

I was shocked to learn of Candice' passing and am so very sad. She was just a great person.
She and Jon share a love that few attain but many seek. It's undeniable. Knowing them both I can't imagine one without the other. I'm just so sorry for your families that their re-union has cost you all so dearly.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Summers and Bringhurst family. Jon was a "son and brother" to the Churchill family, and I was so honored to be able to attend his wedding to the love of his life, Candice. I treasure the memories of both these beautiful young people and am grateful for their influence on my life, and their friendship to my children. Candice was and is truly an "angel".

I had the pleasure of working with Candice and Jon both during our days at Verizon. During that time they grew to be friends of mine that I enjoyed the company of dearly. They both had a wonderful sense of humor and were gracious people. It has been some time since I have seen Candice, but I most certainly have not forgotten about her. She and Jon both will always be in my heart and in my memories. My deepest condolences to the family.

Memories of 2nd grade rush back, middle school, high school and countless priceless times since. Candice, you left us too soon but often is the case, a candle burning at boths ends while burning brighter than the rest, burns out twice as fast.
You will be missed sweetheart.

I worked with Candice briefly at eBay. I did not know her very well, but from what I did know of her she was funny, sincere, and forthright. She was friendly to me in a time of need and in a very sincere way.

My sincere condolences....

Candice was a beautiful person and such a great friend. So many people were blessed to have her and Jon touch their life. I know I was. It is a sadness that will be hard to swollow for a long time, to know she is no longer with us. But, to know she's with Jon again, brings a smile to my face. I loved Candice dearly and I will miss her everyday. Thinking about her and being with Jon again and finally being happy is all I want to think of when I think about my beautiful friend. You and Jon take care of each other and rest in peace, sweet Candice! I love you!
