  1. Loretta,
    We love you and if there is anything you need don’t hesitate to ask or call us.
    John & Twla

  2. Loretta & family,
    John was such a special person with special talents that he shared with so many of us. It won’t be long and heaven will be totally renovated with many great gadgets to make God’s life easier. Take comfort in the fact that all who met him loved him and that he will be missed by all of us. We will keep you in our prayers.
    Joyce & Richard Schonhoff and family.
    Gilbert, Az.

  3. We always called you Uncle Jack, though we know you preferred Uncle John… Mom’s “little” brother, mathematical/mechanical genious. A walking miracle with your new heart and a jokester with your old heart in a little bag to drop in people’s laps. Always working on a project, all expertly done. And always there when any of us needed you. I suspect you wouldn’t like it if I cry, so I’ll send a nod and a toast and a heart filled with thanks for all you’ve done for me and my Julie. Much Love, Roxie
