John’s Girls,
I wanted to take a moment and tell you all, thank you for your kind words that poured in after John’s passing.
During this journey, I was very fortunate to come across your family who truly loved their husband and father as strong and as beautiful as all of you did. I will never forget the moments of pure love when Barb would take him out with two different shoes on or his face when Barb would walk in.
Cora trying to show John where to use the restroom. Kendra, to love your Dad so much and to feel the strong need for your babies to know him.
Your husbands crying at their father-in laws bedside. John laughing and chasing children in the house or holding my own children on his lap.
Your family including John are an amazing family and we all feel so blessed we got to witness/join you in his journey.
During his last days, I felt this tremendous gratitude towards all of you and John for teaching me so many lessons about life and love. I know this is said a lot but I am truly grateful for the opportunity to take care of John during his last couple of years.
The house and our lives seem a little dimmer without him. He always had such a kind smile and a soft touch to brighten your day.
His picture hangs above the fireplace as a reminder of what love is…to give or receive. Once again, thank you all for sharing your journey with us.
love you all
~Sheryl
