To the Stinson and Jacob Family,
Even though I have never meet Mr Stinson, I have heard so many stories about his past that I feel as if we had be friends for years. Even though I am not a blood relative, Greg and the rest of the Stinson family opened their arms and heart and allowed me to feel apart of your wonderful family. I only wished I had gotten the chance to know Mr. Stinson. I am so deeply sorry for everyone's loss.

Although brief, God place you in my path that I may have have someone to share God word with each morning at the Commissary. I remember my last words I spoke to you were: We are blessed and Highly -Favor by God and Man. And as always you smiled and said Amen. I believe with all my heart you are in God hands. He is the beginning and the end. I will miss you Man, along with the other Baggers at the Commissary. I will see you again. There is no other name by which man can be save other than the name of Jesus. Thank-You Jesus for allowing us this short time with Johnny.

Our deepest and sincere sympathy goes to the family. He was a good friend, there for any and everyone at any time, a hard worker and good teacher that once told me "You are not a jack of all trades, You are the Master of all trades" that he was as well! ! May God Continue To Bless You All ! !
