I am so sorry for your loss! I wish I could be there for the Celebration of Life, but I will be in Arizona that week. John was one of the nicest people I have ever met, he will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with your entire family.

We had downtown street outreaches and several times the only one on stage was John & his guitar. Needed nothing else.

We will gather February 22nd at 2pm to celebrate John's life. Please join us at Christ's Place Church in Lincoln.

Enjoyed knowing John and Nancy. Prayers and sympathy to the family

There aren't enough words in the dictionary to convey my feelings of loss with your passing, my compatriot and friend. John has always been an expert printer, an incredible musician and a true and faithful friend. Most importantly, John was a good guy. And some times being a good guy is the best eulogy that a man can earn in his lifetime. Vaya con Dios, John. The world is a poorer place without you. -Jim Rupert.

John was such a treasure! He was kind, smart, and a joy to work with. His love for God and his family was beautiful. We´ll miss you, and I am honored I met you and worked with you for almost 10 years.

John´s music and testimony were so inspiring to me as a new Christian in the 1970s. John was sold out to Jesus, no doubt about it!

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. I knew both John and Nancy (during their dating period) from working at Hidden Valley on the dinner club side; from the front door to the kitchen. They were always so fun to talk to and listen to John's music. Prayers and sympathy to John's family's.
