We're reminded once again what a fragile vessel the body is for housing one's soul. John will live in our hearts forever as one of the kindest, most gentle people ever.

John was our good friend, and we will always be grateful for having known him. Thank you for always being honest, and showing insight into what truly mattered. His unassuming personality never took anything for granted. He was a wonderful listener. For the time we had you John, thank you, you gave both boys so much more than just soccer.
Our hearts and thoughts are with you all and your great loss. With love.
