John was a true blessing during a rough time for me. I’m truly grateful for him. It’s been around 20 years since I’ve seen him, yet I’ve spoke of his goodness and have thought of him often. He has been and will be missed!!

John was tough on the field but a gentle soul. I remember him from Kirby Junior High. Was rare to see him not smiling or laughing. Rest well my friend in the arms of Christ.
