Blessing Well
A Tribute to Brigitte and Ernie Gossett
In a beautiful gesture of friendship and reverence, John Barnard dedicated this Blessing Well to the loving parents of a dear colleague from Roche Diagnostics — not just a work friend, but someone who became like family.
Their bond was more than professional — it was filled with laughter and trust. Over the years, this friendship blossomed through shared values, kindness, and heartfelt conversations. John witnessed the grace and wisdom of his friend’s parents through the stories they told, the values they carried.
Wanting to honor that love in a meaningful way, John gifted a Blessing Well in their name — a source of life that now flows through a village in Odisha, India. With every drop of clean water, their legacy of love and integrity will continue to bless others, bringing health and hope for generations to come.
This is more than a well — it is a tribute to the power of friendship, the beauty of chosen family, and the enduring impact of love shared across borders.
