Frisby & Goodman families,
I was friends with Julie during high school, we waited for the bus together each day.... She was a dear, sweet and kind person. I am so very sorry for your loss.

Uncle Bob and Aunt Ginny, Ging, Bob, and Tina-
It's been nearly a month already and it still seems so unreal. All my siblings live out of state, and you never failed to invite me to family gatherings (like the one yesterday). I was always treated as family, although I am "just a cousin". There are no words to express your loss, or enough to find consolation. Most families would be envious of how close you all are. May you find some peace in knowing God loves us all, no matter what. Thank you for making room for Mark and myself as part of your family.
November 17, 2008
It's been 2 weeks and you all are still in hearts and prayers. I did'nt know any of the family but like so many grieve and sympathize with all family and friends. There may never be answers to the questions but there is only one question we need answered and already know the answer, they all have their wings and in the arms of god and each other. Forgiveness was already in hearts as well as love, comfort and eternal peace. God bless all and sleep well John, Julie and Langon. We all love you and have made you our family too.

To the Goodman and Frisby families.........Our deepest and heartfelt sympathy in your loss.
I was roommates with John in my final 2 years at Shippensburg University. During that time, I got to know Julie as well. She was a sweetheart. They were always smiling and enjoying life to the fullest. I competed against John in high school swimming and was honored to call him a teammate on our water polo team and during our time at Ship. You guys will always live in my heart.

To the Frisby and Goodman Family,
Words cannot express how deeply my heart aches for your families. My daughter Michelle and Julie were friends at WYHS. In fact we lived right down the street. Julie was always such a sweet girl and a pleasure to have around. Please know that your families are in my prayers. May God provide a strength and peace for all of you.

My heartfelt condolences to both the Frisby and Goodman families. I worked with Julie at the York County Planning Commission. Julie took me under her wing when I first came to work there and we shared many great times as "partners in crime". I was just talking about some of those times last week to another co-worker. Julie, John and Langon will be sadly missed.

To both families.
Julie and John were customers or ours at Den's Service Center, they brought their vehicles in often. I work in the office and had just seen and talked to Julie at the end of October, and had referred her to my babysitter for care of Langon, she said she didn't like daycares. I broke down in tears when I heard the news, we take time here to know our customers and they were one of my favorites. I remember them both as such nice people, John being such a big but quiet guy and Julie with her friendly smile. God bless all three of them, my thoughts and prayers with you all.
November 6, 2008
I went to West York High School and although I didn't personally know Julie, I do remember her. She was a nice girl with a pretty smile. She and Langon are with God and they are at peace. My prayers are with her family.

I've never met anyone in your family, yet I sobbed when I heard of this tragedy. By reading these entries I sense that you know our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and that he will be your strength. My family and I will pray for you all, that God will help you through and make the days to come more bearable. I am so sorry.

Sharon, Phil, Andrea and Cori,
I would like to express my deepest condolences over the tragedy of your loss. My heart reaches out to you. I swam with John for many years and was always impressed by his hard work and dedication in the pool. He certainly made the rest of us look lazy at times. We lost touch after high school, but I always remembered the kindness of your family. I wish you peace and comfort during this most sorrowful time.

The Goodman and Frisby Families,
I was a neighbor of John and Julie's on First avenue. Julie and I would walk in the evenings together. John and Julie always were a happy couple. My children will never forget how John wore shorts while shoveling the snow. We always joked about it being really cold outside because John would be in pants. My thoughts and prayers are with both families at this difficult time.

Julie was my friend from 4th grade onward. Though I lost touch with her, I will always remember her as the smart, funny, beautiful person she was. My sincere condolences to all who loved her and her family.

To the Families of John and Julia,
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I grew up with the Goodman "kids" - lived down the dirt lane and have memories of standing at the bus stop with them, walking around the woods and pond, and playing at their house. Everyone that comes into your life - touches it in some way- Remember the good memories.

To all of you who loved this family,
My heart just breaks for all of you. God only knows why this happened. I taught John in grade school and later my former son-in-law was on the swim team at Shippensburg with John. My daughter, Angie, attended Ship and knew John and probably Julia also.
Please know that so many people have you in their thoughts and prayers at this terrible time. May God bless all of you and give you what you need now and always.

Julie
We have been best friends and inseparable since high school, the thought of not seeing you, John, or our "little man" Langon is unbearable. We were just discussing last week how blessed our lives are even in the midst of hardships. This is one hardship I never could have imagined. I know you are at peace, you're hearing those wonderful words we all look forward to hearing, "well done, good and faithful servant". Our tea dates may be over for now, but we will have them again. Have the mugs and hot water ready, we will have a lot to catch up on. As always give my "little man" a kiss and tell him Aunt Missy loves him. I love you J.
Bob, Ginny, Phil and Sharon, our love and prayers to you.
Keith, Melissa, Barbie and Hope.

May God bless you all in your time of sorrow.

Sharon & Phil Goodman, Andrea, & Cori,
I had the fortune of swimming with John for a few years in high school. Those grueling practices were made more bearable by John's presence. I've always told people that John was the best swimmer I have ever known. I'll never forget the night he went five flat in the 500 to beat Zacharda. I know that I never cheered like I did that night for anyone before or since.

Please know that prayers are with you all at this time. I worked with Julie at C. S. Davidson and I will always remember the smile that was forever on her face and her hearty laugh which we heard quite often. You didn't even have to know what she was laughing at, you would just laugh at her laughter because she was so full of joy. She most certainly will be missed by all who knew her as will John and Langon.

Julia graduated a year ahead of me at WYHS and I don't remember her ever having anything but a smile on her face and a kind word for those she met.
