Jennifer, your whole family is in our prayers. We are deeply sorry for your loss.
I did not know him but from all of the stories John told me about him he seemed like a great man. An amazing role model for John. I have countless memories working with John on the farm and he would often show me a strategy his father showed him. I am so sorry for your loss.

Being the secretary at John’s middle school/junior high, I remember your dad as being a very involved parent. I know you will all miss his presence so much. My sympathies.
Bruce and I worked together a long time ago..He was a great guy..R.I.P.
Bruce was like a second father to me he helped me through a lot he was hard on me when I needed it and there for me when I needed him I would give anything to have him back, back into our lives he was my best friend and always knew how to crack a smile on everyone’s faces even if it was a bad time.
