  1. I go to Chardon Assembly of God and was just getting to know John. What a sweet, gentle man. He will be missed.

  2. Our deepest sympathy on Jack’s passing. He was a faith filled man and, yes, quite the talker. We miss not seeing him out and about in his yard. He was a long time good neighbor. May he Rest In Peace. May perpetual light shine upon him as he enjoys the heavens and all the friends and family that have gone before him. My special condolences to you Annette, you were always there for him.
