I was saddened to hear of John’s passing. I have one memory of him coming back to visit NE. I was maybe 6 or 7 yrs old and loved his energetic and funny personality…not to forget that contagious Baltensperger smile and twinkle of the eye.
We’ll always remember his smile and love for the Lord! Can only imagine the reunion taking place with the rest of the family that went to Heaven before him. Our love and prayers to the family. David and Nancy Baltensperger (Johnson, NE)
Mom will really miss talking with her Brother John. I loved the stories she told of growing up with him as her closest in age sibling. One story was how Grandma B would give the two of them the job of polishing the wood floors in the octagon farm house. It sounded like a lot of fun! May God comfort you and give peace. Your cousin, Janice (Soderberg) Lehnert
Sorry to hear of the loss of a great guy….but heaven gained a great soul!!! He’s probably already sharing stories of his grandkids or of the pets. I remember he would love telling stories about M&M the parrot. Love you all Laura & Jeff Liesemeyer
Just wanted to say we are so sorry for your loss….but Jesus gain! He was always a tremendous encouragement to me personally…James and Connie Baltensperger
I loved his greeting..he would smile that big smile and say,”How are you and the Lord getting along?”………James Baltensperger
