I had the pleasure of working with John for several years, and I met Diana at a company dinner. My heart goes out to all of their family and friends. To Julia, Austin and Gage, you and your mom were the loves of your dad´s life and he shared that with everyone who knew him. May The Lord bring peace and comfort to your hearts as only He can do.

Gail, Ron, Julia, Austin, Gage, Sarah and family, I am sending you my deepest sympathy and lifting you all up in prayer during this difficult time. John and Diana are in the arms of our Lord, fully restored with no illness or pain and discomfort. Mike and I didn't know the details of the memorial and apologize for not being there to celebrate John and Diana's life. We love you all and pray that you find some comfort and peace knowing they are together again, eternally.
John and Diana touched many hearts with their kindness and their memory will be cherished. Those of us that had the privilege to call them friends, will never forget what beautiful, gentle people they were. Oh, how they will be missed.
Love and hugs to you all,
Suzi & Mike Madison

I had the honor to work with John. He was a true gentleman, delightful coworker, and always had a smile and that wonderful twinkle in his eyes. He was such a kind person. My deepest sympathy to his and Diana´s entire families. May their memories be a blessing.
