If loyalty and honest friendship are the attributes people judge others on...you can be certain that the legacy left by John will be long remembered and cherished.

John marched to a drummer who saw the world in a light of excitement and enthusiasm. His sense of humor and the actions taken to make it real are legendary...

Another empty seat at the Mulb...

Our sincere condolences to his family.

Bob & Carrie,

Sending prayers and hugs from our hearts to help, in some small way, during today and the difficult days ahead. We will never forget John's humor, his zest for life and all the times he would tease your Mom and drive her crazy ... the smile never left his face. And she laughed about it later, too!

Thinking of you!
Joanne & Gus
