It is only now that I heard of Mr Brown's passing. I happened to be posting a message about Robyn and how I miss her still after all these years and know that she is with me many times, then I was told the sad news of Mr Brown passing.     To Mrs Brown, Sandy and Mike and your families - I did not know how much the family had grown : ) - I am sending my love and prayers to you.  I am honored to have spent time in John Brown's company. A strong solid gentleman who was caring and fun and always ready with a smile. To have also caught up with you in Canada and see the way you touched the community there and the tremendous kindness you showed has always stayed with me. To Mrs Brown, you are in my prayers and I am sending hugs to you.  Take care of yourselves and laugh and love when sharing your memories of Mr Brown, Robyn and Noel xxxxx

Gisela, Sandy, Michael, and family. I have only just heard of John's passing.  It is with heavy heart that I write to you today and offer my sincere condolences to you all.  I met John on several occasions when visiting with Robyn. He was such a lovely man, always so easy to talk to, so kind and easy going.  I am thinking of you all at this difficult time.

To
Gisela, Michael, Sandy and the other family members.
Though we cannot be with you today personally – we are with our thoughts and we will light a candle for John.

We shall remember him in best memory!

Dear Gisela and family:

You and John were an answer to prayer when Christiana and Nathaniel were babies.  You appeared magically giving them love and guidance daily, treating them as if they were your own.
Many years later I am still reaping the benefit of knowing you.
Thank you for letting us be a part of your family!

Sending you loving thoughts at this time.

Dear Gisela, Michel and Sandra - a wonderfully, so worthwhile person is no longer there to talk, to laugh, to share the silence, to share your lifes...

Far away but nevertheless - I'm very glad, that I have got the chance to met John as a very wonderful human in my life. I'm thinking back about a lot of memories. Pictures and stories are appearing in my mind . I "see" a lot of happy moments during my beautiful summerholiday 1982, when I stayed at your home in Calgary and lived along with the Brown family for a couple of weeks.

Thank you John for every minute, that I was allowed to spend together with you!...

Dear Gisela, Michel and Sandra - In that difficult time I am with you in thought.
I wish you strength and courage for the celebrations and that final "let go"....

„Von guten Mächten wunderbar geborgen
erwarten wir getrost, was kommen mag.
Gott ist mit uns am Abend und am Morgen
und ganz gewiss an jedem neuen Tag.“ 
(Dietrich Bonhoeffer)

Heartfelt condolences...
Silent hugging....

Yours in love

Sending hugs and loves to the Brown family, John was an amazing man and I always enjoyed having visits with and Giselle. Such a loss to this world but will be always remembered.

My heart hurts as I feel your pain - dear Gisella, Mike and Sandra. John was a dear soul - quiet, gentle, astute and always there for you.

Sincere condolences.  Thinking of your family during this difficult time.  Cherish the good memories.

Michelle and I are dreadfully sorry to hear of John's passing. We only knew him a very short while, some years ago, but he was a terrific bloke. Please accept our condolences.

Am thinking of you all at this sad time. Lots of hugs and kisses to my family who I wish I could be there with xxxx

Although, I had never met Mr.Brown, I did go to high school with Sandy and am still in contact with her and her family.  I am so sorry for your loss.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and your loved ones at this difficult time, Mrs. Brown.
Love from Lethbridge,
Stephanie Gellion Perks

Sandy, I am so very glad I got to meet your dad and enjoyed spending the couple of times working along side him. He was a very gentle and wise person. Please give my condolences to your family, Mike and your Mom. Enjoy the memories of a life well used to benefit others.

So sorry for your loss I only met him a couple of times but I know what a big part of your lives he was.  Some families don't see each other and regret it when a family member passes, your family will not have any regrets and lots of great memories. Our thoughts are with you in this time of sorrow.
