Sue and family, I was so sorry to hear that your dad had passed away. I remember him driving your mom to Croghan for her haircuts. After he helped her inside, he would always stop and tell us a joke! Please extend our thought of sympathy to your mom, she was such a sweetheart. In Sympathy, Jane Hills

We would like to extend our sincere, heartfelt sympathy to the family of John VanNest. Remembering back to the days of the family reunions at Sand Pond...Uncle Johnny and Dad (Ron Gordon Sr) cooking BBQ chicken and drinking Genny beer. Your jokes will always be remembered as will your smile. You have a special place in our hearts.

To one of my fathers dearest friends, my uncle Robert (bob) Burr,
Thank you so much for being there, my uncle. We were there reliving with him old times as he passed. He heard us all talking and probably egged us on. We had a really great talk on one of his last nights. He cared about you so much like a brother he lost a knuckle getting you out of a scrape in watertown, but he still introduced you to the hottie that was his sister which produced 4 children and 60 plus years of marriage. You can't beat a guy like that can you? much love uncle bob, love sue
