John Colgan

I miss my big brother every day. I loved being able to talk with him. John often made sense of things, that were hard to comprehend He was the bond that kept the family connected. I miss his sense of humor and his laughter. I wish that we had more time together.

I still miss John every time I recall the good times with family and friends in the summer at the pool. He made quite a splash!

Very sorry for the late response but I just found out. John was a incredible man I met him 20 years ago while I was working with Pella windows and doors and several projects and he treated so kindly and like everyone else his smile lit the sky. I always told him he was my brother from another mother. John hope to see you someday Brian Healey

It's hard to fathom that 5 years have passed since John said farewell to his friends and family. His spirit will endure, and the many happy memories will not fade with time. He had a profound and positive influence on us. Thanks, John.

The theme about his life was his million dollar smile. I remember the "arm" he built that held up his mailbox. Recently I asked him for advice about repairing my balcony. But who can ever forget his smile while he putted around town in his pickup. I'm saddened he left us so soon. Thank you, John, for making us all feel better with your daily smile that exists in our mind's eye.

I met John as a result of the demise of the Cambria Village Pharmacy. When Dana Nelson moved out, I discovered that the floor in the front of the building was sagging and the substructure had to be rebuilt. My contractor at the time was Ryan Patrick Adams and he felt, due to the complexity of the work that he would associate with John Colgan, who had more experience with that type of work.
They gave me a bid for the work and did the job, removing the "sag" and restoring the floor to a ...

John was the greatest-always smiling. we loved him. he built our addition and we loved seeing him every day and trusted everything he did. Peter Wolff(,who would have said this but he beat john leaving earth by few months) and his wife ,Jeanette much love to his family

I had just run onto him, at Costco, must have been about a week before his passing. I regret to say we didn't really talk, just a quick hello. I should have talked to him longer. What a great guy and positive attitude.

Such a huge loss to the community and all of us who loved him as a friend. He will be missed. Kathe and Richard Tanner
