Sincere sympathy to Mary and the VanLoon family on their loss. He will be missed. We will always remember John for his friendly greetings and big smiles, especially when at church where he was always a willing helper as an usher and gift bearer. I still remember last summer when he proudly told us he celebrated his 90th birthday and said he was healthy and happy. Rest In Peace John ! May your family be consoled during these sad days with the many happy memories you shared in in your 90 .years.
