Honoree's Last Name Honoree's First Name From Tribute John is one of the first hero’s in my life. He took me into his family when my own was falling apart. As an elementary school kid, he also introduced me to two of my life long loves - landscaping and projects with my hands. I would marvel at his manicured lawn and flower filled garden beds; at his shop full of tools and machines; at his fencing and the deck he built around the pool; and at his garage conversion where I watched hours of tv and played with Terri in the elevated Barbie wonderland he had built. Finally, John introduced me to what it meant to be a veteran, to have faught in the Vietnam War, and to love your country, and defend it. He is with God now, where there is no war, no pain, and plenty of fun projects. Donor Anjou Gerhardt, anjougerhardt@gmail.com Action Approve/Update this tributeDelete this tribute
