Oma, I'm Missing all of your energy and love you shared with our family.

Missing Oma and thinking of her often.  I tell her to help me when baking her cake or a recipe of hers.  I am grateful I was able to learn so much from her in the kitchen.  She taught me and now I’m sharing that with Megan.

I would stop by and bring her a chocolate mocha with extra whip and flowers to brighten her day.

Johnnie and Family,  Resi and I were just reminiscing about the good old days and we decided to check you out on the internet and found where Christel had passed away and it hit us like  a ton of bricks, it was completely unexpected. She was a lovely lady and a great friend. We remember all the time we spent at your home sitting around the pool just talking about anything and everything. We especially remember when you asked us house-sit for you guys when you went on leave in the summer of 1980. Even though it has been some months ago that Christel left us we will still keep you and your family in our prayers. We know she is greatly missed, by all who knew her. Friends like you and Christel are very rare and hard to come by, and we want you to know we do remember the times we spent together and the fun that we had,  We know she's in a much better place now and there is no more pain, may GOD be with her always.

Aunt Chris you will be missed by everyone.  Uncle Johnnie we will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. We will never forget the trip we made to your house. Everyone made us feel so comfortable and at home. We still have the afghan that Chris gave to us. It will be a very cherished gift.  God Bless you all during this difficult time.  Love always Mollie, Shena and Gloria

My Aunt Chris will be truly missed. She was an amazing woman who always laughed and made others laugh. She loved her family whole heartedly as they love her. Her & Uncle Johnnie were the true love story that everyone else envied.  Her beautiful smile always would light up a room.  I loved hearing about her home country of Germany, she would tell such amazing stories. I love you Aunt Chris, but I know you are with Stevie & JC again, no more pain & we will meet again.

My wonderful Sister-in-Law  was my rescue as a young child!  A gift from God for all who knew her!  She generously shared her life and love with all those who knew her!   My heart is broken but I feel peace knowing she is in the arms of the Angels !  She will never be forgotten!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

While I never knew Mrs. Lawless, I can tell that she was a kind and compassionate person based on her son John Lawless, who has been an acquaintance of mine for nearly 15 years. If he is any indication of her kindness and compassion, then without a doubt, she was a great lady!
Many of us who know your son John, celebrate your life and your doubtless numerous accomplishments, despite the struggles and trials that present themselves everyday. 
May the Lord and Savior keep you close to his heart and grant you the much deserved peace and rest you've earned.
Sincerely
Johnny Gascon
