Condolences

So sorry for your loss. I remember John from Lakeshore Tabernacle and his faithfulness to God there. Wayne goes farther back to remembering John from Christian Assembly in Zion. Wayne even had the opportunity to work with him painting several times. May God bless you as you remember the Godly example that John was and comfort you in knowing that someday you will see him again.

For Mr John's Family: My condolences for your loss. I for one am grateful for his legacy of service to our Lord. He drove a Sunday School bus back in the 60's when I was a child providing the only way for me and my sister to go to Church. I believe Mr John is hearing "Well done good and faithful servant"!

Joshua & Caleb,I am so sorry for the loss of your Dad. It was just a few months ago that I lost Dad so I understand your pain. Rejoice in the fact that He is with Jesus now and is not suffering anymore. He and my Dad were great friends which is how Dad meet Mom your Aunt Joyce. They are together again now. We are praying for you.Your CousinNaomi
