I am so sorry for your loss, Janis. You talked about Johnny everyday at work. We all felt like we knew him. I know you love him dearly and he will be missed.

Janis, We have only lived next door to you and John for 3 years but during that time we have been so blessed to have such good neighbors and wonderful friends. Please know that ours thoughts are with you and your family. We will truly miss John waving to us as hes walking Daisy and seeing him out in the yard. Please know that we are here for you.

Janis and Family, I am sorry for your loss. I feel priviledged to have worked with John in the 80's. He will be dearly missed by all. God Bless you and the family.

Janis, We heard about Johnny today and it certainly was a shock.  The last time we visited, in your front yard, he looked so good.  I am so happy now that I stopped and had a chance to see him that day while you both were happily planting flowers.  We never know what God has in store.  David and I (also David, Jr.) send our condolences to all your family.  Love,  Miriam Fisk

Janis and Family, 
I am so sorry for your loss.  No words can ease your grief, but please know you all are in my thoughts and prayers.  
Very Sincerely,
