My dad My best friend... He meant everything to me it's so hard to believe he is really gone. Christmas is going to be especially hard without him for all of us. He was such a great man and achieved so much in his life It is hard to understand why it has ended so soon. I will always cherish the memories I have with him. So many of which still make me laugh because he was so much fun to be around. He was everything I could have wished for as my father and the same as a Grandfather. I know Dad is watching over us from a better place and my tears will vanish once my day comes join him. He will be missed by so many.
i miss you
I LOVE YOU DAD

To John's family and friends, my heart felt condolence. I had the privilege of knowing and working with John for many years and I will forever have many reasons to smile and laugh when I think of him. Someone once said that the true measure of a mans life is, if when he passes one could say "he was a good man". To his family, who already know this fact, I will still say "John was a good man."

My Heart and Prayers go out to Heather and all of the family during this time of mourning. I have been good friends with Heather for over 20 years and I was privileged enough to have known John through Heather for almost 3 years. John was/is so many things such as a hard-working man, a caring father, loving husband, a loving brother, son, grandfather, and a general caring individual to all of those who's lives he touched. He is now everywhere, all around us and watching over us until our time on this earth has come to an end and we rise up into eternal life in heaven.
The Lives he has touched during his time here on earth will be, like him, eternal. My Thoughts and Prayers to all. God Bless....
