Karon,
It has been a true honor to be a part of John's care. I will miss his sense of humor and is ability to make everybody around him smile. I have enjoyed my time with you guys in the infusion room, as I feel that you guys were a extended part of my family, listening to all my stories. I will never forget John. May God Bless you and give you all peace.

To my Uncle Mike,
God looked around His garden And found an empty place. He then looked down upon the earth And saw your tired face. He put his arms around you And lifted you to rest. Gods garden must be beautiful He always takes the best. He saw the road was getting rough And the hills were hard to climb, So He closed your weary eyelids And whispered "Peace be thine". It broke our hearts to lose you But you didnt go alone, For part of us went with you The day God called you home.
Aunt Karon, Shawn, Pat, Beth, Adrienne, Ian. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love
Nick and Beth

God blessed me growing up, to have a second family. I got to have a very special 4th big brother, Mike. Even tho he was twice my size in height, he treated me as if i was just as tall as him. I don't ever think i could thank Mike and all of his family, for giving me the best years of my life. Still to this day, i can't believe how many people we got into that VW bug, that one day.
Karon and all the Yerdon family. My thoughts, prayers and thanks are with all of you.

Mike - No matter how much time had gone by, you always greeted us with great smile and huge hug. Your genuine concern for other people made you the kind of person we all strive to be. I will miss your stories about your kids and the laughter that you brought to Aunt Doreen's table. We will all miss you so much. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your wonderful family.

Mike - Whenever I think of you it brings back memeories of my younger childhood when Mom (Aunt Peg) was babysitting Julie and I. You were home with a broken leg and a cast past your knees. Julie and I weren't being very good in teasing you as we would pull the hair on your good leg and RUN. We knew you couldn't catch us. May you rest in peace now.
Karon and family-may the memories of Mike keep you smiling and give you strength. He will be with you all forever.
Our deepest sympathy to you all -
Lisa and Randy

To Aunt Karon, my fine cousins, and all of the Yerdon family who are experiencing one of the greatest losses I think there is. The loss of a husband, father and brother. Our thoughts are and have been with you the whole fight. Uncle Mike was a great man. We all know that. The world is definitely worse off without him. Please let us know if there is anything we can do.
Love Matt, Chelsea, Bryson and Abby

No words can express our sorrow, but may this saying ease your pain:
To Mike ~
God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered "come to me." With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best.
God Bless you Karon, Pat, Beth, Shawn, Adrienne and Ian. You're all in our thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I am an old friend of Adrienne and her husband Rick. I know what a great person Adrienne is and how proud she was of her father for fighting as long as he did. Whenever I would ask Adrienne how her father was doing she would smile and say Still Fighting!
My regards goes out to the rest of the family and may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

To my brother Mike .... a little more than three years ago you and I shared a special day - albeit not a great day. Both having surgery the same day in the same hospital for cancer - an unlikely situation for any family. We were surrounded by so many of our loving family- I think they all had a special waiting room! From that point on, our lives took very different paths. I was always conscious of yours and thought about you every day. My path continues, but you will always be a part of it and I will never forget the shared part. You showed us all what true strength of character is and with your ever-present sense of humor. We all love you and sure will miss you. You know we'll be looking for you on the flip-side.
To Karon, Pat, Beth, Shawn, Adrienne and Ian. You all know how much Mike loved you - you were his world. Take that love with you wherever you go, Dad will be watching!
Love to all,
Nancy
