Condolence From: Claudia
Condolence: My sincere condolences to the family. The pain, the grief and the feelings of helplessness can seem unbearable. At such times, we need to go to God's word for comfort.
Psalm 46:1 - God is our refuge and strength, A help that is readily found in times of distress.

Condolence: You were a wonderful man and your love for your mom and dad is proof of that. Thank-you for always stopping and taking the time to talk or help all the people at the nursing center. It takes a special person to do that and you John were that one special person. May God wrap his loving arms around your surviving family. I know Uncle Rudy and Aunt Linda were there to greet you with open arms. RIP till we talk again always Pat-n-Betty

Condolence: It was a privilege to grow up in Medley's Neck with John Keaton as a friend, to join with him in parish liturgies and activities, and to be a Brother with John in Knights of Columbus St. Mary's Council 1470. John did an outstanding job as Grand Knight of the Council from 1996 to 1998. I served as his deputy and learned by example from him about true Christian life in the Catholic faith. John went on to be Faithful Navigator of the Father Andrew White Assembly. He is one of the top five longest serving KofC Bingo volunteers (living or deceased) on Fridays at Father Andrew White, S.J. School. John's caregiving, provided so generously to his parents and Nursing Center residents, truly extended to everyone he met and with whom he established a bond. May he rest in peace.

Condolence: John - I always called you my gentle giant. You stood tall, had a huge heart and were most dedicated to St. Mary's Nursing Center. You always kept others in your heart and set a true example of an Awesome! employee for the facility, the staff and mostly for our residents. Rest in peace my giant until we meet again.
