My heart goes out to all of the family. John and I graduated together from Snohomish High and reconnected on Facebook a while ago. I will miss John's "How...Deee!!!" The last time I saw him was at our class reunion. May John be forever in our hearts and minds.

For you =)

John was a pretty special guy. His laugh could light up an entire room. You couldn't help but smile when he was around. Even though he was retired, he would stop by the office to say, "Howdy!" and visit with everyone. He loved telling us stories about his grandkids and show us their pictures. He will be missed.
My heartfelt condolences to his wife Karen, children & grandkids.

Pearl and family, I was so sorry to hear about your loss. I didn't realize your Dad was a Snohomish Panther like me (1976). God Bless all of you.
