You have always been my rock. Whenever there
is
trouble in the family, I think of you for
comfort,
assurance, love and affection. My beginning of
motherhood; my joy; my pride. A mother’s
dream.

and

and
a HAPPY LIFE!
Dad

10. John Michael,
You are a big lovable bear of a guy;
which serves to support a perfect cover for your true
identity.
I’ve come to believe you’re a double agent
employed by the KGB.
You walk the walk, talk the talk,
and you drink like a Russian National.
Carrie, I thought it was time you knew.

for his loved ones and our world.

sharing love!
Thank you, John!

12. John,
You bring happiness to me when we are together.
You are a fun guy and
I'm happy to be your brother in law.
M
Now I'm getting ready to head to PEPE"S
Enjoy your Birthday event.

13. John, you have always been special in so many ways.
I was 10 years old when I became an Aunt...WOW...You were born!
My Dad was finally a Grandfather...SO PROUD...first Grandson!
Honestly you provided a thrill for us and brought new JOY into the family.
Three years later, I came to Germany where you were living. I missed you!
We traveled Europe together and it was so much fun.
We have always lived far apart but you will always hold a special place
in my heart.
I hope you have a wonderful birthday-the best is yet to come.
I love you.
Aunt Louise

14. John, you always brought calm to me in your
counsel.
I appreciate you for your ability to maintain calm
in
difficult times.
It has always brought me joy knowing that you
are my brother. I find great pride in knowing
you.
I could go on and on…

15. John,
In the years I have known you, you have
always been welcoming, kind and fun to
be around.

16. Uncle John,
You are always fun to be around.
You are always in a good mood.
Lizzy

17. John,
You are a lucky man! You are surrounded by people who love you and
care about you and appreciate you for all that you are. You have
always
been a good friend and I admire your integrity, your honesty and
your
willingness to be self-reflective.
I have a quote from you up in my office that reads,
" Focus on what you want and what makes you feel good...
And you will have it!" I wish that for you my
friend –
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Jessy

18. What are you going to be for the rest of your
life?
Dear John,
God will guide you on a course of true harmony and peace.
At first you were a tiny gift from God, a gift your parents took
quite
seriously. Watching their gift develop into the man you are today
makes
them proud. Your path has not always been easy but you
continue to be
that quiet mountain of strength for everyone. You have made
many
sacrifices along the way; you developed into an individual to value,
love

19. John,
I only knew you while you were quite young, but even then it was
obvious to me that you were gifted with a highly evolved soul and
were
sent here as a source of stability and clarity for others to lean
on.
You always seemed to be watchful and protective over your
brothers,
and friends, and I'm looking forward to hearing from you and
hopefully meeting you both again soon.
Alan

20. John,
When I think of you, I see…
a patient and kind gentleman
a cute laughing and chubby little boy
Life has taught you much
A serious student
You will swim to victory

28. John,
I'm not sure if this is the type of message that can be kept short. First of
all, I love
you. You have been precious to me ever since you were born, bringing
new life and
focus to our family as the first grandchild. You were a beautiful, precious
baby
and have grown into a remarkably handsome man. I think you are terrific!
I have always admired your commitment to your family and to your children,
especially given the obstacles that you have been faced with. Your
consistent hope
to do the right thing and persistence in unconditional love has been one of
the
hallmarks of the life that you have led and the example you have given.

29. Your kind and gentle spirit is one that I treasure, as well as your
openness to seeking advice and counsel. It is a sign of the
wisdom that
you have and is perhaps the one attribute that gives you your
greatest
strength.
I love you and will always love you. You are such an important part
of
our family!
May God Bless You Always,
Aunt Jane Pollom

30. John, When I think of who you are, I see…
Mellow, easy-going, understanding, accepting, non-judgmental...at
peace.
You have a great curiousity for life...you want to learn more and you
also
want to offer what you have learned to others.
You enjoy connecting with people and learning more about them.
You’re a good listener and respond in compassionate ways.
