Uncle Johnny,
The Cowboys are doing pretty good this year so far. I'll never forget you put me in Cowboys jersey when I was 5 years old. Thanks for being my hero and can't wait until I see you again!
love always,

Ron Jr.

I am so sorry to hear this. I will always remember working for Mr. John while I was in high school at Liberty County high school. The things he taught me has shaped and molded me into the man that I am. He was one of the hardest working, most caring person I know. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you Ms. Cile and family. Mr. John you will be greatly missed.

Tice Family, my prayers are with you all at this time..My daddy, Jim "Herbie" Flanagan, and John, were good friends. I'm sure my dad will now show John what Heaven is like.. Mr. Tice will be missed by so many.

Ceil and family, my heart is full at the loss of John. He was a good hearted person that would give anyone the shirt off his back if they needed it. John and Ceil are not only Christian Family but good friends. May God give you the strength to get through this difficult time.

I'm so sorry for your loss. May the memories and the love shared help you find peace and faith that you will be together again.

John will be missed by so many here on earth; my deepest sympathies to the family; we have lost a wonderful man

My heart goes out to you Cile. I share your loss. John was a very good man. He was always great source of support and encouragement. He always had a smile and a story to brighten your day. One of my favorite memories is the Yellow Bluff Shark Tournament. I wasn't much of a fishing person then, but he was patient and showed me what to do. It was a night out on the water that will always be very special. Heaven gained an angel with a light that shined bright here and will shine even brighter...

I'm saddened to hear of your loss, Cile. My prayers are with you and your family.
