John Fredrick Boline

I miss John. I remember the first time I met him and how kind and gentle a soul he was and how he confidently and calmly assured me he could fix my truck. I never went to another mechanic; why would I, I now also had a friend in this great person with a great smile. I miss you, John, and will be not far behind you since we're the same age. Your friend

John, I miss you very much. Today would have been your 76th birthday and mine will come in 2 months exactly. I think of you often and know that I will be joining you not too far down the line. The world was a better place with you here and so you're missed by many. Hugs to you, my friend. RIP Darriene

John was the reason I fell in love with cars. He shared his passion for the Rx7 with me and helped me build my first car. He was always honest with me and watching him work was magical. I was always surprised at how much knowledge one man had. I regret not taking him Shoe string chips more often. I miss you John.

John, I was just thinking of you yesterday as I was working in the greenhouse. I rescue small trees, and I have the start of an oak tree I will plant on my farm, just for you and the birds who will house there in time. Still missing you and remembering how terrific a person and how nice to visit with you as you worked on my truck and MG.

I met John in 2005, he was my go to mechanic for my personal and business vehicles. John was a wonderful man, he was always patient and kind to me. John even took time to help me when hard times fell on me and I needed a mechanic. He walked me through the work which I did in his parking lot. He always had a big smile and I appreciate him.

My heart is breaking with this news. I had just dialed his number a few days ago and left him a message that I wanted to visit him. I met John when he was suggested as a mechanic for my vehicles. He was the kindest, most honest person and I am SO sad to hear of his passing, as he and I had become friends. RIP my friend.
