My sincere condolences to the family. Janey, you and John were so close and you will have so many memories. Johnny was a funny guy and kept us laughing. He used to stop in to visit me almost daily when I had my little store and would make me laugh! I am glad you had all that time with John living at your house as you helped take care of him, it is a gift that you were given to be able to watch out for your older brother! As well with all your visits to his residence later, that will in return be your blessing. A gift in your heart that you will have forever!
How will I remember John?
I will always remember his translucent eyes, his mischievous smile, his teasing personality, and how close he was to you, Jane.
You were his anchor, you knew him best; he always knew you would walk beside him when he needed you. You made him feel safe. You’re the best.
Condolences to the Lanier family.
Dear Jane,
So sorry to hear of John’s passing. We remember John as happy and most grateful for the joy you gave him. To live with you and your wonderful family in that beautiful place for those precious years—what a gift—best sister ever.
Love to you, Rick and your family,
Paul, Margaret and the Kelly Family
