John Heinmiller

West Point, 2004

Be Thou At Peace

Heinmillers and Friends,
I am so fortunate to be able to say that I knew John. I sat down at my computer and the next thing I knew I was on this webpage and then I was looking at all these things that people have to say about Johnny. Me and John weren't best friends or particularly close, but I saw the way he loved my friends, especially Maria. He used to call me whenever he knew he was in the doghouse with her. It always made me smile b/c we all knew they would end up together in the end. Something little that I wanted to throw out there is the fact that John is the only one who ever called me Tina, actually Krump took part too, but John started it. I know that is so cheesy, but for the rest of my life I will think of him whenever someone calls me lately. That seems to be often lately. Whenever I come home from ISU I'll go see John and give him an update on whats been going on with Ep life and all the people who are close to him, mainly Maria and sometimes Matt. I think me and John had an understanding. He knew that I loved the people close to him as much as he did. Its such a nice feeling to know that the Heinmillers can still keep a great relationship with Johns friends. We all need that. Anyways, these are my late night thoughts about Johnny. I miss him and I know he's watching out for us.
We were lucky to have him in our lives.
Kris
