Bonnie, Stewart, Emily and Laura
Each life that we are exposed to during our life time can bring so much joy. The other side of that blessing is when that life force is taken away, it hurts.  I would love to be able to provide words that make this loss more palatable, but I am thinking that would be impossible. So what I will offer is my wish for you and your family strength through this very difficult time. And that the memories of John (aka Dad, grandpa  and the unprintable names  - cause we all have those  :)  help you through this very difficult time.
Our thoughts are with you all
Debra and Taylor Fagerdahl


Mima and family
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. His happy outlook and smiling face will be missed everywhere we go.
Thoughts are with you
Bill Chatwell and myself. 

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  Unfortunately, we cannot be there on Sunday, as we are already busy with another commitment.

I only knew John for a short while when our paths crossed at Crane Valve and then again recently when we had the pleasure of moving in beside John and Mima.  Upon seeing John, it was his great  sense of humour and fun that came directly to mind and we enjoyed sharing a few of those crazy stories from Crane.  Candice and I offer our most sincere condolences to Mima and the family.

There are so many memories with our brother in law but to choose one it would be our annual Christmas Eve get togethers.  John would sit on a dining room chair acting out “Sleigh Ride” while whipping and riding his imaginary horse. We laughed so much. When we left the hospital last Saturday this song was the first one we heard on the Christmas radio channel. John was the fun Uncle for our girls. He will be greatly missed.

First time in Canada and I saw a horse and got excited. This was my reaction and right after the picture was taken John went “you’re from Texas, have you never seen a horse before?” He will be missed and never forgotten ❤️

Meeting John and Mima was a tremendously blessing for us on a NE Cruise. We felt like instant family. Never will forget his humor, his kilt at breakfast and teasing Ken  about wearing a hat indoors. I am doubly blessed we got to come to Canada a few years ago and make more memories. Those few days and at Niagara Falls will forever be fond in our hearts. He may be gone from us here but look forward to eternity when we all pass on. RIP and the love of God,  John.
