I have not met many men in my life who have had the devotion and passion, that John had for his family. They were his world, and he always spoke of them with such pride and love. He reeled over their ups and downs and was always so very proud of them all. What a wonderful father, uncle, grandfather, brother, cousin, nephew and friend he was. We were all so lucky to have him touch our lives with his love. He had such a warm and genuine heart and cared so deeply for others. Our lives are all a little bit richer for having him. Sending love and prayers to all in your time of sorrow. Catherine

My dear friend John, I will miss you …my heart is so heavy with sadness. You were a dear, longtime friend to Mel, always there for him and for me. You will be missed M’Darlin.
