Not sure what to say?

I recently learned of John's passing. I'm stunned. He was a wonderful friend. My heart goes out to Nova and her family as well as to John's family. I have worked with countless contractors but none as professional as John. I will always cherish the sound of his laughter and the wry grin that followed my request for a job to be done in an impossible amount of time. Yet he always delivered what he promised. Infinite sadness envelopes me because the world is a darker place without John Cantrell...

While I was too young to know John very well, I do remember John's gregarious personality from countless racquetball tournaments. John always made a point to connect with me as a junior player and made me feel like I should be playing with the big boys. My family sends our love and condolences.

I'm floored and completely saddened to hear this horrible news. I have been off the racquetball scene for some time now. John was an amazing player and a super fun guy! In my best racquetball days, I would compete against John a lot. It was always fun to play him! We both shared in each other success on the court while we would battle each other. His smile, humor, laid back personality and integrity on the court are the memories that come to me……..and that long hair he used to have!!!! Love...

Brent - thoughts and prayers from my family to yours. Angie (Schmickle) Fritz

I know the loss of such a great person as John will be missed but knowing that there will be a time when the meek will live here on earth again,until that time draw close to the God of comfort and he will draw close to you at James 4:8

So sorry to hear about your brother's passing, Brent. Our prayers are with you and your family. Your neighbors, Tim and Leticia Hoose.

John's sudden death was such a shock to our family. He has been a part of our lives since he was in high school. Most recently he spent many days on special projects for us. We can look around our house and see John's handiwork everywhere. He completely remodeled the house where our daughter and her family now live and he was so proud of the work he did there. John was a friend you could count on. He was a kind, gentle soul and will be sorely missed. Our only comfort is that he is...

John was my cousin. I am shocked by his early passing. We had lost touch since his mother Charlene passed away. Brent, Paul and the rest of the family please know that you have our deepest sympathy. We love you.

I have known John ever since I was little and he had recently done a lot of work for us on our house. I am completely shocked and saddened by his passing. He was a great guy and will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Nova as well as the entire family. John, may you rest in peace.
