You were the best father a girl could ever have. When I would spill my broken heart out to you, you would only listen and lend your big shoulder to cry on and never judge. You would sing a funny song to make me laugh. I miss your smiling face. I miss gardening, fishing and bowling with you. I will grow our tomatoes for you always, this year I have a lot coming! I can't wait to see you again. You are my rock. You believed in me when I didn't believe in myself. You showed me a true example of christ's love for us.... that even though we screwed up, your love was always there and never changing. Love Forever ....Your Angel Girl.

Janice,
My Heart felt condolences on John's passing. As you remember we were Birthday Buddy's, in that they were same year a day apart. We would take turns in treating each other to Dinner at different places. The last couple of times were after we both married, and had the chance to meet You, and you all met Terry. I pray the Holy Spirit cover You under it's Wings through this difficult time. I will always remember him fondly, a kind gentle Soul.
