People often include major achievements when writing obituaries for loved ones. And those achievements are a regular theme in their Guest Books entries. This week, we share 5 condolence messages about achievements:
- The one achievement that John was so proud of was his “hole in one shot” at EagleQuest golf course in Surrey. It was even mentioned in the Surrey paper “Blind golfer makes rare hole in one shot”. John’s kindness and patience showed in everything he did. [Published in the Vancouver Sun]
- I enjoyed reading this short account of his life, especially about his athletic achievements in high school and then that he was a soldier in the famous 442nd. Wow, your dad served with them! I learned most about those soldiers from a superb Ken Burns series about WWII; they were highly praised for bravery and performance. A father to be proud of in many ways. [Published in The Sacramento Bee]
- As our neighbour in Regina for over 36 years, we watched as Judy and he raised two little boys in diapers to elegant, decent young men! You are your Dad’s legacy and his proudest achievement. [Published in the Regina Leader-Post]
- Gabriel achieved much more than most in his time here – he lived fully, played fair, dreamed big, toiled hard, and remembered his fellow man with compassion. To be sure, we could have used a few more years of his wisdom and talent .. but am sure he went gracefully into the next adventure. [Published in Gold Country Media Newspapers]
- Mr. Padjen has attained so many great achievements and accolades during his lifetime, not the least of which is his inspiration to countless athletes and students. I pray that God will comfort his family and that all those who morn this loss will take comfort in knowing how many lives he has touch in such a positive way. [Published in Evening Sun]
