Kanta Family, So sorry to hear of your loss. John was a great guy.Always enjoyed visiting with him over the years. Either at our Kitchen table where he and dad bladed many a roads or at a local tavern for a cold one. Very lucky to have the memories. You all are a great family and it has been an honor to know you all over the years. God Bless you all.

We wanted to express our sincere sympathy for the passing of Uncle Johnny. Johnny was a wonderful man that was so caring, funny, and a true family man. He raised 8 wonderful children and you all should be proud. We are thinking of all of you and you are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Our deepest sympathy for the loss of your father. We never had the privlidge of meeting John (our loss), however we will always know him through the love we have for the family members we have met.
We are so fortunate to have Cory, Jack, and Andria as part of our family through our daughter Brenda. We will keep your family in our thoughts and prayers and hope you will find comfort that your father is at peace. He will live on in your memories and in your children’s eyes for generations to come.

Wanted to let you now how much I enjoyed your Dad/Grandfather. I bartended at the Causeway Chalet for two years and loved my conversations with John. I felt the whole place lit up when he came in. He was one of the most friendly and kind individuals I’ve ever met and I feel privileged to have met him and been able to spend the time with him that I did. Thanks for sharing him!!! I hope your memories of him bring you comfort and the fact that you can join him with our Father in our Heavenly Home grant you comfort. Again, your Dad/Grandfather was an awesome, wonderful man. Blessings on all of you.

My father, Floyd Hoff, called to tell me he lost his friend John this week. He cried tears of joy – as he remembered the good times they shared. My sympathies to all of the Kanta family. Let memories make you smile.

I haven’t been reading the paper, so was shocked when my boss mention he was attending John’s funeral today. Gloria, I am so sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing. I wish I had been more diligent in getting together with you knowing the challenges you faced in getting a strong minded independant fiesty parent to take proper care of himself. May his spirit always guide you and the love he had for you help to keep you strong. I think of you often and especially today. Peace and love my dear friend. Julie Massey

Being old valley neighbors we want to extend our thoughts and prayers for your loss. We did not know John but after reading of his passing we felt like we did. He sounded like a strong, hard-working man of integrity. The “good ole kind”. May memories help you carry on. Bless his journey.
