Nancy and Sharon and family, I taught you two at Pleasant Valley in 3rd grade many years ago. I remember your dad as a very nice, caring person. I am sorry to hear of your loss. I hope you both are doing well in life; I'm sure you are since you were such good students. June Edwards June Edwards 2009-06-10 07:33:09

Our son, Bob Moore, rented his college home from John and Janet. We met them through the RMH Wellness Ctr. We appreciated their efforts in keeping Bob on the straight path as he ventured out on his own. We are sorry for your loss. Samuel and Beverly Moore 2009-06-10 08:45:26

Dear Mrs. Dieckmann and family, My thoughts and prayers are with you. I did not know Mr. Dieckmann well but I do have some memories of him. I remember him as being intelligent, kind, gentle, soft-spoken and good-humored. I am very glad that I will always have those memories of such a genuinely lovely person. Thinking of you.

Dear Jan and family: So saddened by the news of John's passing and will bring the "laminated" copy of his obit to Church one Sunday soon. We have missed his voice in choir and now it will no longer be heard. But know he is "singing with the angels." We will miss the Memorial Service today due to work and a Dr. appointment. Will be with you in spirit! Lots of Love, Judy and Roger Judy & Roger von Seldeneck 2009-06-12 05:27:06

Dear Dieckman Family: We are so saddened by the news of John's passing. We have missed him in the choir and now his voice will no longer be heard. Wish we could be at Memorial Service today, but I am working and Roger has a Dr. appointment at same time as service. Cut out the obit and will have it laminated and either send to you or bring it to church this Sunday. All our best to whole family....Judy and Roger Judy and Roger 2009-06-12 05:52:17

Judy and Family, I am sorry to hear of the loss of your father. I have many fond memories of sleep overs at your house when we were little girls. My best to you, your mom and sisters. Stephanie Alexander Berry 2009-06-12 15:30:59

Jan, Sharon, Nancy, Judy and Family, I’m sorry for your loss. I have countless fond memories of John, as a result of spending many hours at your home while in high school and college. John was always quick with a witty comment, a chuckle, or a raised brow, when needed! He was always approachable but obviously incredibly intelligent, highly educated, and very dedicated to both family and career. We’re all fortunate for having spent true quality time with him, and he will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you. John Werner 2009-06-12 16:41:34

Jan, Sharon, Nancy, Judy and Family Nancy and I are heartsick for your loss, but we have so many wonderful memories of our shared youthful days so long ago during the early Space Conditioning and Harrisonburg years. John's generous, helpful and intelligent guidance at the office and the social hospitality you both shared with us will be cherished forever. The Spottswood parties, your backyard cookouts and John's rendition of "Archibaldis Holebroke will remain with us always. Our love and best wishes to you all.
