John was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. He is missed every day. Love to Rhonda and his children and grandchildren.

John,
It's hard to believe your really gone. Ever since the first time I met you over twenty years ago I thought you were the coolest dad. Johnny was so lucky. If u looked up perfect Dad there would be a pic of you as far as I was concerned. You were always there rather it was picking us up at 4am from the donut shop, or coming to my rescue when my car broke down, or even the simplest of things like when ud act like a goof-ball just to get a rise outta Johnny ( which was never to...

I love you John with all my heart. I miss you desperately. I miss hearing your voice asking about my day when I got home from work or that you were going "lurking" or fishing. My heart is shattered. I thank you for our many wonderful years together and for the loving family that you and I made. You were the best husband, father and grandfather. Love is not a big enough word to describe how I feel about you. You were my best friend and the love of my life!

I love and miss you dad so much!

We can see you Fishing In Heaven. We remember all the Good times. Love You and Miss You. Sincerely Dad & Mother McDonnell

Praying for peace through this trying time.

Love you and will miss you terribly

Your family is in our prayers.Love you
