To Sandy & Family: May we offer condolences to you on the loss of John. He was a special man. It was always a pleasure to have a talk with him. There was always something to learn. Eternal rest grant unto him, oh Lord. And let perpetual light shine upon him. Until we meet again.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Dear Sandy and Family: I was so sorry to hear of John´s passing. My mother and I treasured their friendship during those young growing up years; we were like one family. We loved Helen and Tony, John and Anthony, were like my brothers. They were the best people and we treasured their friendship; John was such a great man. Our sympathy and love to you all, Carol Brezovec/Bass and my mother, Caroline Rauch (94 years old).

Sandy and family, Deepest sympathy to all of you on the passing of a wonderful, kind, and lots of fun to make blush man. We will miss seeing and talking to John at the cruises and when he visited us at our shop. We really had some great talks with him and Mike has known John for many years from Smith and Piefly. To John, Rest In Peace and keep driving that beautiful B5 blue Plymouth convertible till we all one day get together again. Prayers to you and your family.

Oh, my! This is surely sad news this morning. My deepest condolences to Sandy, family, and all the Mopar Madness Car Club. I had a vision and John carried it through for many years after I left. I am sure he will be in charge of God's classic car garage, they'll never run better or shinier. John, you'll have to start a new chapter of Mopar Madness in Heaven. Godspeed my friend.
