Jen I am sorry for your loss.  You and your loved ones are in my prayers.

Jenifer,
I am so sorry for your loss, you and your loved ones are in my thoughts and prayers.

We are sorry for your loss.....Amelia will miss you Mr. Whitehead.  You were a good man with a great heart.  Heart of Gold may you rest in peace with a golf club in your hands.

God saw you getting tired
  And a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you 
   And whispered ” come to me”
With tearful eyes we watched you,
   And saw you pass away.
Although we loved you dearly, 
   We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
   Hard working hands at rest. 
God broke our heart to prove us,
   He only takes the best.

Thanks for everything, and welcoming me into the family as your own, and for giving me the greatest, most priceless gift you could ever give... your daughter... my wife... the love of my life. Rest in peace, knowing that she is very much loved and taken care of. You're a great man... I love you, Dad.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child.  My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

Jane, Julie, Jennifer - I am so sorry for your loss, John was a great man and dedicated his life to Junior Golf. I am proud to have worked with him for so many years at HCCC.This was really the John Whitehead Jr. Golf Program. John was responsible for guiding many of our Junior Golfers to successful future careers both in and out of the golf industry. He not only taught the game of golf, but passed on the honesty and integrity of the game that he cherished.  Again my condolences John will never be forgotten.

Forever in this heart of mine, an everlasting bond, for now until the end of time, are memories so fond....
Remembering you is easy, I do it everyday. Missing you is the heartache that will never go away....
I LOVE YOU DAD!!!

Thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.
Think of you in silence.
Often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart.

I am so blessed to have been loved by such an amazing father.... RIP Dad... I love you...

I'm so sorry Jenifer that you have to go through this.  I'm here for you if you need me.  I know I live in Arizona but I can listen and pray for you.  Again, I'm sorry that your family has to go through this.  Stay strong and cling to God for strength.  Love, Cecily
