Condolences on behalf of Delta College. So sorry to hear about John passing. Prayers to Susan and the entire family as you rest in the hope of eternity. We are honored to work with such a wonderful company, I-Shred that represent the high integrity that John and Susan offer to all their customers.
John was truly a wonderful and special person. Always so genuine and upbeat-a true pleasure wherever we saw him and the best smile ever!! He will absolutely be missed by all. We are so sorry we could not be there for his celebration of life but he and your entire family were in our thoughts and prayers. Love and Hugs, Paul and Beth
Will Rogers said, “I never met a man I didn't like”, but in the case of John it was the literal truth. I don't believe he ever met anyone he never liked, and I don't believe there is a soul on the planet that met and did not like him!
I will still be looking for him at every family function, and surely think about him often.
Susan, Michelle, Monica and Jay Ray,
We shared so many fun and fond memories together with our children and our families, Just know we love and pray for your family and John leaves a legacy of loving memories! With all our Love and Prayers , John and JoAnn Kaack
Susan, Michelle, Monica, Jay and all of John’s grandchildren and extended family, Ron and I are sad to learn of John’s passing. John will always be an example of a kind Christian husband, father, grandfather, son, brother friend and member of our community. He has touched so many lives. May the knowledge that John now lies in our Lord’s loving embrace and the many loving memories that you all share with him bring you comfort in the days and years ahead. Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. God bless you all, Jeanne Aceves Smith and Coach Ron Smith, Nathan and Adam Smith
