Jon --
Our deepest sympathies to you and your family in the passing of Jackie.
Because of our long-time friendship, going back to kindergarten (1941) at Frank Allis Grade School, and more recently the 50th Anniversary of our Eighth Grade Graduating Class Reunion, you have been in our thoughts many times.
May you find peace in the coming days.
Warmest regards,
Beverly & Gary Forsmo

Sorry for your loss, Jon.
It has been a long time since we crossed paths. Please let me know where you are and we may connect next time I visit Madison. We often lunch with friends in Deerfield or Cambridge.

Dear Jon,
How sorry I was to hear of your loss. I'm glad I had a chance to meet Jackie and get to know her a bit. Our tie seemed to be tennis, but I know she had many other interests.
God bless you especially at this time and hold you close.

Dear Jon,
Heard via Don Shilliglaw that your wife had passed away. I also noted that you two were married in our old Bethal Lutheran church---many memories of growing up in that congregation and being confirmed together. Just wanted you to know we are thinking of you and your family at this very sad time. May
God's Peace and Comfort be yours.
With Sympathy, Don and Sue

Jon: Very sorry to hear of your loss of Jackie. I know what you are going through, as I lost Donna this past May.
I'm sorry I won't be able to attend the service Jon, but my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
