Jim and I are grateful for the visit we had with Uncle John and Aunt Margaret, along with my mother, Sarah Kahmann, at the Mennonite Home a couple of years ago. We remember how Margaret lit up with a big smile when she saw my mother and said, “I know you!” We remember how loving and attentive John was with Margaret. And how appreciative he was for the staff and the care they both received at the Mennonite Home.
Marjorie Ann, Joan and John, you and your families are in our thoughts and prayers.
With love,
Lynne and Jim Einhaus
