Dear Joanne and family,
You are heavy on our hearts today as we recall just one month ago we received the phone call about your dear John dying so suddenly. You are in our daily prayers for strength, wisdom and guidance in all the decisions to make. We pray for your good health also.
With love, Ernie and Mary Jo

I can't stop thinking about you. Your warmth, your caring, your devotion to your faith and family, what a great gift you are. I especially remember when you were at King Dodge and we'd meet for lunch. I know you are at God's side watching us. I miss you.

I cherish my memories of being with John and all of you while we were together at St. Joe, Cottleville. I esp. treasure times together in the ME community. May the many memories you cherish keep John present to you forever. May eternal rest be John's. May God's comfort be tangible through the outpouring of love and support for you. My love and prayers

Precious memories of a loving husband, father and friend are all that we have. John, we know that you are smiling down upon us, and that we will meet again. Joanne, you have experienced our worst fear, the loss of a soulmate. We will honor John by trying to love each other as much as he loved you, unconditionally, with all his heart, more than life itself. Dear children, because of our own experiences, we believe that there are probably many things that you wished you could have told your dad. We also believe that you can still say those words, and that he will hear you. He was so proud of all of you, and loved each of you so very much. You can honor your father in the way you support your mother, in the way you love each other, and in the way you live your lives. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

John, Today we rejoice with you...because today, you see God. Surely your eternal reward in heaven in great, because of the life you lived here on earth. A good and faithful servant were you. To all the family John left behind, remember this, "To live in hearts we leave behind, is not to die...but to live forever, as brilliant memories of the love we shared." In God's Eternal Peace, The Bornemanns; Mark, Debbie, Kristin, Corey and Christopher

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.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort. I know you have many many wonderful memories of John. Although I knew him for only a short time from working with him, I know he was a loving husband and father and was devoted to his church. A gentle, kind man that will be greatly missed at Lakeway Ford Mercury.

Joanne and family, words cannot express how deeply sorry we are for your loss. Although our time with John was short, your entire family had become one of the crew at Lakeway. He will be sorely missed but joyfully remembered. May God Bless and Keep All of You.
