Dear Hedy and family. We’re thinking of you during this time of John’s home-going.
We enjoyed having him as our carpenter doing projects at our house- he always cleaned up the mess after himself at the end of the day, and had a nice clean start next day. We appreciated that. I also enjoyed the years of him choir directing.
May the love of God and your many good memories lift you up.
We are sorry, due to prior commitment that we will not attend the service.
Sincerely Dorothy and Werner Braun
