I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Prayers for you and your family.
There are no words to tell you how very sorry we are for your devastating loss. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers. In your time of grief may the light of the Lord surround you, the love of the Lord enfold you and the power of the Lord protect you.
Dear Jane, Joe, Andrea, Jennine and Phillip, and the entire Patrone family, Please accept our deepest sympathies in the passing of your husband, father, brother, grandfather, and uncle, John. While we knew John for only a short 14 years as neighbors, we quickly grew to love him as a true friend. John would do anything for you, anytime, any place. As his obituary says: God, Family, Country was his belief and his life. John and Jane encouraged us to join them in moving to Del Webb's Sun City, and we did one year this month after they moved. Unfortunately, he did not get the chance to see our home. It is interesting to note that we became good friends as neighbors living on a street named Heavens Gate. Now, John is surely standing at the "pearly gates" of Heaven being welcomed home by his family and friends to live eternally with the Lord. We will miss you John Patrone. May God Bless you.
My sincere and heartfelt sympathy to all the John Petrone family. Love Marlene
