Dear Dorothy, Kevin, Trent, Trevor & your families ...

We were so saddened to hear of John's passing, and we pray God's comfort for all of you. We enjoyed very much our last visit with John here in Prince Albert earlier this summer at the Native Fellowship. My memories go back to you being our neighbors in Pambrun, when you opened your home to me during my college days and, of course, your many many years of faithful support for us in our ministry.

Our sincere sympathies to you Dorothy and Family on the loss of your dear husband, father and grandfather. We remember his friendly greeting whenever we met the both of you. His deep voice always reminded me of George Beverly Shea.

Dear Dorothy and family,
We are so sorry to hear of John's passing and send our condolences.

He sure knew how to make people feel welcome at church. Before and after church he would be walking around the entrance area shaking hands and visiting. His love for the Lord and people showed.

I have been praying for your family and thinking of you. I remember playing piano for John when he sang "God and God Alone" for Karalee and DeeDee's wedding........... I enjoyed the time practicing with him, and the joke we shared when he dropped by our house and my adolescent daughters thought he was some stranger.when he came to the door.....can't quite remember how it all went, but it was quite funny! That song will always remind me of him!

I share your grief as you mark the passing from this life of this dear friend. I've been honored to have known John (and sung with him, too) and so very much enjoyed his friendship. My prayers for you, Dorothy and family, are that you'll be reminded often of the positive impact and spiritual influence this wonderful husband and father has been to so many around him. Be comforted in the knowledge that he was also a comfort to others!

My sincere sympathy Dorothy and the entire Regier family on John's passing. It was always such a privilege and honor to accompany him and I have such special memories that were made while practicing great gospel music. I can't help but wonder if Ken and John are sitting side by side, talking German and hitting those wonderful bass notes together at choir practice! How sweet when we'll see them again! Until then, my prayers go with you!

Dear Dorothy and family...we were deeply saddened and shocked to learn of John's sudden home call. For us Swift Current without Johnny won't be the same but we have very happy memories to cherish. We loved to hear him sing with that lovely rich voice God gifted him with and he sang at our wedding in Vanguard in 1963.
Dorothy, we pray that you will take comfort knowing that Johnny is no longer in discomfort or pain but in the very presence of our wonderful Lord.
With our heartfelt sympathy and prayers,
Ed and Anne Adams, Northern Ireland

Our condolences to Dorothy and the family. I have special memories of childhood fun with John or Johnny as we called him, whenever my parents visited with Uncle Dave and Aunt Nettie. I know he was a sensitive and gentle giant in many ways with many people. Your memories will be sweet as the days pass from these days of grieving to those of remembering.
Blessing. Carol and Lloyd

Mrs. Regier:
My sincere condolences in the loss of your husband and long-time partner. I would certainly have been at John's service on Sunday but my Family Reunion starts to-morrow and I will still be gone to that. I've had a long friendship with you and John from sewing machines to accompanying John to sing. I know that you just lost your sister recently and my heart goes out to you. I will remember you in my prayers.

With love, Joan Williamson

Just a few words to John's family; John and Karan invited me to Trailview when I moved to Swift Current. They always had a big smile on their faces and shook my hand. This is what I am going to remember. I am so sorry for your loss, he was a good friend. Remember John is with The Lord now. I am happy to have known John.
God bless.
