Condolences
The family of John Herman Ravenhorst has received the following condolences.
So sorry for all you went through. John had a great sense of humor and could sit down and chat with anyone. If the animals love him you know he’s a great person. And his animals adored him. Anything I am able to help with let me know. Love you!
Thinking of you all. Sending lots of hugs your way. If you need an ear, I am here. Love you all.
My deepest condolences to the family. I lived a couple houses down from John in Rochester and remember his warm heart and big smile. You didn't have to know John long to learn who he was. Even my dog would break out from the yard just to go get a treat from him in his garage. I knew I could count on John and it was good to have a neighbor like that.
My deepest condolences. Wishing you peace as you navigate through this difficult time. May the memories John left bring smiles to faces once again.
