Condolence: Rick and I send our heartfelt condolences to the entire Kennedy Family in the loss of "Brother John". I remember him over the years as a joyful Christian man who was known for his love for, and strong faith in, the LORD, as well as for the way he loved his family and friends, his church and his fellow man. He was especially fond of MSU Baseball at Dudy Noble Field. He had a great sense of humor and could be found wearing a big smile on his face, laughing, and enjoying life. He also set a wonderful example by finding ways to serve others. He was kind and someone who could be counted on. He was truly "salt and light". May our merciful God ease your heavy hearts and grant each of you blessings of peace, comfort, and strength for each new day.
Your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.
We love all of you...Rick and Judy Smith

Condolence: Dear Miss Edna,
I'm so sorry to learn of your loss, but rejoice that Mr. John has received the fulfillment of LORD JESUS CHRIST's promise. Mr. John graciously allowed me to interview him on his retirement experience for a geriatric class I was taking - the interview was less like work and more like spending a pleasant afternoon with a beloved friend. You both loved and encouraged me through difficult life events and I thank God for you both! My heart and prayers are with you and your family ❤🙏
