Jeneene & Family, Our deepest sympathy to you all on John's passing. Mom (Dolores Schmidt) just saw the write up in the newspaper. She worked with John @ Lou's Bearings for more years then I can remember and as a child I remember a very kind & always smiling, gentle man at Lou's Bearings Company Picnic's each year. As an adult I got to reconnect with both of you at Church with my young family. I was always nice to see you both there and passing along Hello's between you and mom. John will be greatly missed by anyone who knew him. Condolences, Dolores Schmidt, Kathy (Schmidt) & Scott Stroeder & family

Dear Jeneene and Family I have so many great memories of both you and John from over the years of working together. Christmas parties and picnics for example...I'm sure I was the recipient of a few eggs whipped at me and sharing a few cocktails together. My sincerest condolences....he will be missed greatly. Much Love, Gwen Kennard (one of the Lou's family)

Dear Jennine and family, sending you sincere condolences on John’s passing. My late husband, Ken, worked with John at Lou’s Bearings and always enjoyed his good humour. John was kind and always willing to lend a hand. He even helped me move once! Wishing you peace and comfort at this difficult time. Treasure the memories. Sincerely, Janet Vogelsang Heath

Jennine and family, it is with deep sympathies that I pass on my condolences to you. As my siblings and I have been reflecting, John was a special cousin to us. Most likely because he boarded with us for a winter when we were quite young. Not only were special memories created at that time but John won a special place in our hearts that continue. I regret that I will not be able to be at the visitation but do anticipate being at the service via the live stream. May God's grace be your strength for these days.

John was such a great co worker with my father when they worked together at Forsyth many many years ago and they shared rides together going there ! My thoughts and prayers are with you ALL in your time of sorrow and I will say John had such an infectious laugh that I always remembered God Bless
