Jan, I just found out today (Thurs, Dec 19th), and I am so very sorry to hear about John’s passing. My condolences go out to you and your family.

So sorry to hear of your loss. He had a great personality and was always a lot of fun, very caring and helpful. Sorry I cannot be there to attend but know that my thoughts are with you and I wish you all the best in getting through this difficult time.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. John was truly a father figure to many including myself and I will always remember his kindness and sense of humor!

We will sadly miss John’s smiling face and wonderful sense of humor. John will be forever remembered.

Your Friends, Grant & Audrey.

Dear Jan and family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad time. My last (and lasting) memory of John will always be the great big bear hug he gave me at my John’s memorial. So kind and heartfelt. I will light a candle at 2 pm on Wednesday and think of you all.

Your friend, Doreen.

Janet, Scott, and Mandi,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time. Your husband and father was such a loving man and held a special place in my heart. I would like to say that I was one of his extended children and I will miss him very much.

I was saddened to hear the news of John’s passing and my heart grieves with you. I appreciated John’s upbeat and sincere presence and seeing his deep love and appreciation for this family. May his soul be in peace. I suspect he will be smiling down on you on Wednesday afternoon knowing you and some of his favourite people will be gathered together and celebrating his wonderful life and legacy.

We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this difficult time. We will chatting with him over the fence.

Sincerely,

Shainon, Michael, and Marin Swanston
