May God bless you, aunt Florence & family, as you grieve. I pray that the Lord will hold you all in the palm of His Hands. I always remember Uncle John as a gentle man who always had a smile & was always doing something in the garage!

We were blessed to have John as a patient. He was a good man and his family loved him dearly and took such good care of him. He was always very kind even though he wasn't feeling well. Our love and prayers are with you all and Mr. Caron you no longer have to hurt, now you are with the Angels and have no pain. We will miss you and never forget you.
