Condolences
The family of Myron John Jostock has received the following condolences.
Myron Jostock Family,
I always enjoyed Myron & Marilyn. When they built there new home they would ask very good questions about the equipment and the systems we were going to install. Myron was always with a smile and pleasant to do business with. You can call me anytime with questions. Myron's passing will take a long time of memories and good times!
My condolences,
Steve Green
My condolences go out to the Jostock family. When I was a wee little tot, we lived a few doors down from the Jostocks on 15th Street. We moved to Worthington, MN (Jerry and Diane are my parents) in 1977, so it has been a long time, to say the least. My father Jerry (Jerome) is interred at Grandview, in the veteran's section. I take comfort in the fact that old neighbors will soon be new neighbors once again. Every time I drive by, I always remember "the yellow house on the corner"!
