John Ibbotson
An important part
of Frenchman Butte he was
A General Store; helping people just because�
The focal point for
miles gave him advantage
-Knowing everything about others, his vantage.
A natural for
becoming a history buff- his call
Years of recalling,
recording, giving it his all
Generations of
family history he preserved
Appreciation for
all time now well deserved.
Roots and local
history are priceless I�m told
Healing souls-
mending broken lives gone cold
Reconnection made
possible gives focus for all
Thank goodness John heard his call for recall.
Thank-you John from
your family now well
Satisfaction is
yours as our proud hearts swell.
You will be an
integral part of our history now
Forever valued and
cherished by all, we vow.
