Love you, John! We think of you everyday and shared memories about you on your birthday this year. I miss you dearly.

Dear John:

I just learned of your passing, and I was very saddened. It has been a year and a half and I suppose a a very late condolence is better than no condolence.

You were one of my favorite students at the
Scottsdale Sylvan Learning Center. I always thought of you as our own Baby Huey. You never acted immature or like a baby, but because of your stature, people always thought of you as being much older than you were.

You were one of the finest kids that I knew. I still have a photograph of you and your entire family on the Sylvan Bulletin Board. I think it was a holiday card of sorts. It meant so much to us that you and your family thought of us.

I will always miss you and
your mother and father as they are lovely parents and were so great to interact with during our regular conferences.

I pray that they are coping.
Losing someone as special as you are would not be an easy task for any family.

You will be missed by everyone at Sylvan, but we know you are in a wonderful place.

Love and affection to everyone in your family and spread as much joy in heaven as you did on earth.

Candyce Burns and the entire Sylvan staff

My condolences
Brother John, it's really saddened by this RIP.
A very kind hearted positive minded person I ever met.
Just few days before, we the admins of @offtopicchat discussed his absence from our group.
We missed you in our new group created for our beloved old members. We are very very sad by this loss. Our admin group is so silent. We are really missing you buddy your place will always remain empty in our heart, in our lives and in our group.
Personally we both had personal conversation through pms on every kind of topic of our group, as well we called each other brothers.
Though our religion and culture is different we had special bonding in our hearts.
John knows the art of making place in everyones heart he was good at it.
Very humble person, though world had different view on topics he had his own view and vision.
I can say after meeting him and by knowing him personally I enlightened my self with the knowledge and positivity he had, he reflect his culture and humble nature and he made his country proud in our hearts and international community.
We discussed many things, specially his culture, family, life and many controversial topics very constructively.
John John... We love you.
May Allah bless you with peace,
In this holy month of Ramadan we are all praying
For you.
May Allah bless his family members. and give strength to all of them in this sad moments.

Aameen

John you were so kindhearted and made each person feel special. You were this towering soldier with a teddy bear heart inside. When my girls were hesitant to be dropped at school in the morning they were always fine when they could be by your side. I truly believe each person who met you is better for it- you were a blessing to so many people. I know you are rejoicing and happy where you are now but we will miss you so much here. God bless your wonderful family who you can be sure are surrounded with love and prayer now and always. Thank you for being you.
