Not sure what to say?

I had heard about John's passing through a mutual friend of ours the week that he passed away. I actually didn't realize this memorial page & book existed until now. Another friend was asking me about John and the conversation made me want to search for him on the internet for some reason and that's how I stumbled upon this page & book. I've known John since we attended Oliver Beach Elementary School together. We also attended Middle River Middle School & Perry Hall High School together. We...

I not only adored John but admired him. Since he joined Sabrix a couple of years ago, fair or not, I have kind of measured our dear IT folks by their level of “John Crosswhite-ness”. I viewed him as the gold standard and I’ll really miss his commitment to excellence and his willingness to put down whatever he was doing to help me…no matter what I needed help with, IT-related or not. And, that approach wasn’t exclusive to me but the manner in which he approached all of our requests for...

I am thankful for the gift of knowing John. I wish we would have been closer than we were, because he will always be one of those people you never had a bad thought of or experience with, he was just an all around nice guy. Sadly the type this world misses or too often ignores.

The world was a better place because he was here, and I hope in someway I am a better person because I value my blessing of knowing him.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Bob & Lyn & Lori, Geyne called to tell me of John's passing & I can't say how sorry I am to hear of the loss of your dear son. I am praying for you & that the wonderful memories you have of John will sustain you as you mourn this loss. I think of you & Lori often, particularly when I look at my Hawaii photos with you in them. Jane & Bill Ruhl

John was such a good friend and I was excited to have found him on facebook only to lose him so quickly. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you!

Dear Mr. Bob, Mrs. Lyn and Lori,
I am so sorry for your loss. John was a good person. We got to chat just a short while ago... Remembering all the fun back in Harewood Park, MD.
He will be missed.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your whole family.

Dear Bob, Lyn, Lori and Family - Words cannot express how so very sorry we are about John. You are deep in our hearts and thoughts during this time. Hold on tight to the wonderful memories that you all have and if there is anything we can do, please let us know. Take good care. Love, Stew, Nancy & Stacey

P.S. I am so sorry that Stacey and I were not able to make it to John's Service, but he is in our thoughts and I will be thinking of all of you this, and each day...

I've known John for a couple of years at Sabrix: full of generosity and dedication. Whenever I see his distinctive walk in the office, I knew we are in good hands. My thoughts and prayers are with his family with deepest sympathies...
