We will all remember "Papa" as he was always available when needed by his children or grandchildren. When times were difficult, the warm embrace of his arms were there to assure our safety and we knew we were loved. A Father has never been loved more by the people he touched, his spirit will be with us always.

We will always remember John as a kind, friendly and generous person. We enjoyed our relationship with him as well as Doris at our church (LHCC). We will miss him but know that he is now in God's gracious hands.
