Dear Carol,
Francis & I Are So Very Sorry To See That John Has Passed Away, And Shocked To Say The Least. Debbie & I Were Talking To John Last Week At Tim Horton’s. It’s Really Hard To Believe That He Has Left Us All. John Was Always Such A Likeable Person And So Friendly And Very Nice To Talk To. He Always Had Time To Chat No Matter What. He Loved His Family And Especially His Wife. He Never Took His Thoughts Too Far Away From His Wife, She Was Always On His Mind. It’s Hard To Find Love Like That These Days. Carol, You Have Been In My Thoughts And I Want To Send My Deepest Condolences To You & Your Family. Cherish Your Memories Of John And Keep Him Close To Your Heart, For These Are The Memories That Will Get You Through Some Very Difficult Days Ahead. May John Now REST IN ETERNAL PEACE, And May You All Find Peace In Your Lives And Keep The Love Going. If There Is Anything That I Can Do To Help Or Do For You Please Don’t Hesitate To Call. John Has Now Earned His Wings And Flying High With The Angels. God Bless You All!!!

Carol and family
Please accept our condolences on the loss of a great husband, father and grandfather. When I thought of John I thought of Carol. You two were partners in every sense of the word. Many children experienced the unconditional love that you had to share. It takes special people to live their lives the way that you guys did but you were always happy and so proud of each and every child. The world has lost a great mentor and he will be remembered by so many people because in one way or another he put a positive spin on so many lives. Carol I know you will be surrounded by family and they will take good care of you. Take the time to remember all of what made John the special man he was .
Chubby, Kathy, Nick, and Katie
