Condolence From: Heather Burns
Condolence: I am so very sorry to hear of John's passing. He was a very special person and I have many fond memories of John during his time at Hull services and Hull school. I remember whatever I asked of him, he always said "yes" and even when it seemed an impossible task, he made it happen. My condolences to the family.

Condolence: Dear Grandpa and Dad, here are a few notes of love from us:
-You were John Jr’s best Friend and also always there for our family! We are still amazed from your dedication to us from showing up in town at 5 am to work, and another time came home to our entire house packed in a day
-Your friendship and dedication to John Jr is so special and I know that he will carry on all your good traits such as caring for others, the love of cars, peddle bike ridding, and of course the love boats and hot weather
-Your were the first one to hold Anderson at the hospital and bring him his first toy truck, please watch over him and help him grow strong like you
-We always loved hearing your voice as your last words on the phone were always “love you guys”
-I always was thankful to share you as a Dad and it’s exciting for Anderson to say your name “grandpa grandpa” and point at your picture
-Anderson and I look forward to hearing more stories from John Jr about you and know he will continue to make you proud.
~forever free~
Love always,
Baby Anderson and Alisa

Condolence: My condolences to John's family on his passing. I knew John from his years of working at Hull, and we had many wonderful and rich conversations in that time, usually over the shell of a broken appliance or as he was patching up walls. John put the "gentle" in gentleman; he was truly a sincere, caring, one-of-a-kind man. His bright light will be truly missed.

Condolence: Uncle John,
I missed you the moment I was delivered the news. The lose I feel resonates at such a deep level.
You have always been there to support me in any venture that I embarked on, encouraged me to believe in myself offered to help and came with out a moment's notice to my and my family's aid. You are a true example of what selflessness is.
The world is less bright without you. When I walk the paths of Calgary I will be walking with you at my side.
