Pete and I are so sorry to read of John’s passing in today’s Delaware State News. You know he is with GOD now as says 2 Cor. 5:8…to be absent from the body is to be present with the LORD. He no longer suffers but is happy in Heaven where you will see him again one day.
Again, we wish you and your family our deepest sympathy. Try to REJOICE for John is NOW IN GOD’S HANDS JOYFULLY PRAISING HIM.
Most sincerely,
Jan and Pete Anderson.
