John had such a powerful impact in my life. John was one of our faithful members at Kalamazoo Covenant Church and in particular our Men’s Bible Study. He had so many words of wisdom to share with us and set the bar high for us to follow as followers of Christ. One quote that many of us in the class to this day is “Life is full of choices - choose wisely!”. It was such a privilege to have conversations with him about his early life, his wife Grace, his family and his days serving his country. His love for his family and country was evident. I will miss John and our talks and sharing our love for Jesus. I know John heard those words we all want to hear “Well done thy faithful servant!” Peace and comfort to all of John’s family at this time.

We will miss him.I loved sitting next to him and John showing me how to play Domino's. He was a great friend to all.

I praise the Lord for our brother John and am so thankful for Jesus who has brought him unto his reward! I am also especially thankful for the son John raised, my dear brother Bob who loves Jesus and is making him known to college students all over the place! I am praying for the Holthouse family this week!! May the Lord love on you as you grieve with a great hope in Christ! PS LOVE LOVE LOVE the picture of John in his WWII Army uniform!!!!!
