We are so sorry to hear of John’s passing. He and your mother were good friends to my parents, John and Ella Franz and he was the wedding photographer for our wedding. May your good memories comfort you during this sad time.

Wow! Where to begin. God gave him 94 years, a good long life.
When I saw your dad's obituary, it reminded me of your mother calling him Hans. It brought back good memories. Both your dad and mom where always busy doing something - your dad in the garage and your mom in the kitchen. I remember camping trips at Winnipeg beach - going boating and water skiing, getting sun burned and having great meals for supper. Then later on going to the cottage and doing the same things but having a more comfortable bed. Your parents were very hospitable and thoughtful. I enjoyed visiting with your family. We had good memories together.
We would like to extend our sympathies to you in person, but unfortunately dad has day surgery on Friday so we can't come to the funeral. We love you all and are praying for you that you might experience God's peace and comfort through this time.

With love,
Rosemary on behalf of the Bruhns family

Dear Harold and Marlene and Marvin and family:
We are so sorry to hear of the passing of your Father, John Retzlaff. He was our most amazing neighbour on Wallasey Street! I will always remember his help and his kindness in helping me clear out our family home when it came time move. He was a great friend to Alex and Velta Vacietis for many years. We were blessed to have John and Mary in our lives. He was the quintessential Mr. Fix-It: if you needed something he would have it! Always a part of the memories of Wallasey Street!
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
Laima for Velta Vacietis and Tom, Jen and Ray Parker.

John was our dear neighbour up at the lake. You could tell by the well worn path between our homes how much we meant to each other. We will miss his stories, his kindness and his always including us in his family. We send love to the entire family - Don and Linda
