Heather Michel Freimund wrote a sympathy message

“It is difficult to sum up all this dear man was to me and my memories are precious few being the eldest niece that lived up north in MN. I cherish my first recollection of riding to the Barbers in his jeep, even then he seemed bigger than life. To remembering his tall tales, he sure could tell a story! (I wish I had recorded him, seems like the first thing I forget is the sound of a loved ones voice). To his visiting me in MN and being together for the holidays/2023. Much loved, much missed!”

Heather Michel Freimund wrote a sympathy message

“My friend David and his wife had trouble posting their message so he IM’d it to me asking me to give it a go. "Dear family members, I read John's book about his time working in NW Wyoming and was very moved by his stories. Heather knew I would love reading it and she couldn't have been more right about that. Praying for all of you as you look back on how he affected your lives." David Rebok”
