Prayers for newborn health and strength for John as he begins his next journey. What I remember is his attention to detail and making sure that a job was done well. That was appreciated and shows the true nature of a person. I will not forget that. Thank you John.
Lisa:
I am so sorry to hear that John has gone to his final home. Although I had never met him, I feel I know him through you and your keeping us up to date on how he was doing. I will remember him as the wallpaper guy with a heart condition. You have been a wonderful nurse all these years and I know you have done your best in every way. My condolences to you and your families. Sincerely, Lynn Dorn
John was a good man. This is so heartbreaking to hear. So glad to have had the opportunity to speak with him, even though it was years ago. Bless his heart, he sent me one of his beautiful pottery vases.
Still have it to this day. John will be missed by so many. Praying for Lisa and his family.
