Supporting the Family of John Kibler

Hello, my name is Sherry Hankee—Crystal Schaller’s Aunt, the mother to Gunnar Kibler. It is with deep sadness that I share the unexpected passing of John Kibler, Gunnar’s father. John was a dad, a loyal friend, and a man who lived life with passion and heart. His loss has left an immeasurable void in the lives of all who knew and loved him.

Anyone who knew John knew his love for Ford Broncos, dirt bikes, and spending time out riding. The sound of an engine, the thrill of the ride, and the freedom of the open road were some of his greatest joys. Those moments—even the simple ones—brought him peace, laughter, and countless memories.

But above anything else, John’s greatest pride was his son, Gunnar.

As we navigate this heartbreaking time,

I am creating this GoFundMe to help cover the funeral and memorial service expenses. Any remaining funds after services are paid for will be placed in a fund for Gunnar.

No contribution is too small—every gesture of love, support, or remembrance means more than words can express. If you are unable to donate, sharing this page or keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers is deeply appreciated.

Thank you for surrounding us with love during this incredibly difficult time. May John’s memory continue to ride on through Gunnar and through all those whose lives he touched.
