There may not be a lot of people leaving comments or memories of John but I certainly will do this. John was not only my brother but he was a father to me. He help my mother support and care for her, my sister Dorothy, and myself. He was a wonderful person and he gave so much quiet love and caring to us and many other family and friends. He will be missed by me and I love him.
