Jackie, Christina and I are saddened to learn of John’s passing. We grieve for you and for your family. We know he is with his Savior today, but more importantly than that, he sure led a lot of others to Him as well. He can rest easy in paradise with a new set of those overalls, pulling a long draw of smoke from that pipe, knowing that he has done a great job on earth.
Jackie, I am saddened by John’s passing, yet I am rejoicing because I can only imagine the sights and sounds that he is experiencing right now. Please know that I love you dearly and will pray for comfort and peace to surround you and the family. Love you, Teresa
