Dear Marge, Mark, Janet and Phillip,
We are so sorry to hear of John's passing. Our sincere sympathy to you all in this time of loss. My fondest memories of John was when I served on the Grand Haven Township Planning Commission with John. He was a man of forsight and wisdom. His contribution to the township will continue to be felt for many years to come. His pride in his family was very evident to all. You will be in our thoughts and prayers in this time. God Bless, Marge and Vern Brower##imported-begin##Marge and Vern Brower##imported-end##
Oh Margie, I'm so sorry to hear about Jack's passing. He will be sorely missed; his calm presence, his amazing talents in so many areas, his willingness to show and teach, endlessly, to those of us who never get it the first time!
Our love goes out to the whole family, and to Jack's spirit - wherever he is, I know he's inventing a clever way to do it better.
Big hugs from all of us: Marte, Dan, Jesse and Taylor##imported-begin##Marte Milks##imported-end##
Phill, Janet, Mark, & Marge, Mr. Schnell was an inspiration to all who met him. Even briefly. His humor was dry, but got through to all of us, young and old. He will be missed.
Love you all, Rob##imported-begin##Rob Andersen##imported-end##
I am really sorry to hear of Jack's passing. He got me started going to the turner's meetings, and we spent many agreeable hours there or in his shop or mine. I liked Jack, and I shall miss him.##imported-begin##Jim Alguire##imported-end##
