The Greatest of All Time!!

Mr. John was a very sweet person. He would tell me so many stories of his life and of his family. Mr. John, you will be truly missed and you truly were The GOAT!!!!

It is with a saddened heart that I learned of John's passing, today. John and I dated in high school when I was at Duchesne, and he was the kindest, funniest guy, ever! Many a time, he literally drug me across the course at Champions to follow the tours, and meet the visiting pros!!! But, John made those hot, long treks bearable and entertaining with his humorous golf facts and contagious laugh!

We lost touch when John came home from A&M, after my last date with him... when his dad...

Dear Jack and family:
I was saddened this morning to see news of John's passing in the newspaper. My memories go way back to John as a child, growing up on Warrenton, a friend of my children. He handled the challenges he faced in life bravely, and I know appreciated the loving support he received from his family.

I pray you all are at peace, knowing that John is with the Lord and reunited with his mother, Ielene.

May God bless all of you,

Margie Gripp Pierce

John, you really are "the greatest of all time" and I will always cherish growing up with you...May you truly rest in peace now and forever in Christ's loving arms. I know your mom is happy to see you along with so many others.
I send the Burke family all of my love and prayers.

So sorry for your lost, May the "God of all comfort" give you and your family his peace. 2 Corin. 1:3

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. May God be your stronghold. Psalm 31:2
