The family of Brian Johnson would like to thank all of the family, friends and businesses for the continued love and support during Brian’s passing. We would also like to thank all who attended and helped organize Brian’s Celebration of Life service. We were overwhelmed by the hundreds of people that attended. Over the years, Brian touched so many lives in a special way. Seeing all of the lives that Brain has touched will forever warm our hearts. Many thanks for the lovely bereavement cards and words of comfort, donations, tears and hugs, amazing food and flowers, hugs and prayers, as well as comfort and strength during Brian’s passing. Brian can finally climb the stairway to heaven with all the love sent his way! 

With Love,

I would like to thank everyone who came to say goodbye to Steve. We were truly awed at the number of people. Thank you again, it was quite a send off for Steve. Special thanks to Mark Strpko, Marty Fraser and the Cedar Springs Fire Department for the firetruck.

To all my relatives, friends and aquaintances,

I would like to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and a very happy New Year! I am sorry I am unable to send out cards this year due to illness. I would also like to thank everyone who has been helping me by bringing me meals, running errands and giving of their time.

Merry Christmas to all and a very healthy and prosperous New Year!

What ever you did, send a card, flowers, made a phone call, stopped by or sent food to keep us nourished during this sudden loss. We want you to know that it was greatly appreciated.

Kindly,

The family of Terry Shears.

Dear Community,

This summer has been especially hard on our DPW workers. While there are always the day to day operations, they have had to deal with a lot of extra work while being short-handed. They have also had to handle emergencies that most of us aren’t often aware of, without complaint.

The sidewalk construction project has demanded a lot of time from our Supervisor, Bill. The leaf vacuum broke down and the sidewalk project has run over into the fall making leaf pick-up even more difficult. Our DPW workers do a great job for us, they work hard every day so if you see them out and about give them a wave and a kind word to let them know you appreciate what they do for our community. Make someone’s day today!

Thank you to all that attended the visitation and funeral of James Cole Jr. and Lisa Bradley. We were overwhelmed by so many people showing their love and concern to our family. Thank you Bliss-Witters & Pike Funeral Home. Thank you to all who gave a gift of money, brought food (so delicious) to our home and to the funeral, to Mary, Diane, Wendy, Laurie and Dawn for all your help setting food up that day, the beautiful cards and words given to us, all the flowers, all your hugs and tears, prayers to comfort us, to all that helped and continue to help her on the farm, getting the crops off the fields, feeding the herd, stopping in to check on me. God is good! A big thank you to all the friends and businesses who helped, to Troy (pig roast) and Greg Fisk (bug spraying), also to Inge and Tommy for your beautiful words at the service and in my home. We continue to pray for goodness on this earth and separate us from hate. “God is Love”.

Thank you – God Bless You
