Not sure what to say?

John, Mark and Cindy,
I am sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I will keep you in my prayers during this time of sorrow. Your dad was always so nice to me and I enjoyed his stories. May God grant His peace to all of you.

SORRY TO HEAR OF JOHN'S PASSING. BOTH OF US WENT TO ST. AL'S WITH JOHN AND RICH WAS A YEAR AHEAD OF JOHN AT CATHEDRAL.

Old CB buddies from the mid 70's in Mt. Pulaski. Bought my first old used pickup from John (Chevy Man) when he was a salesman for the Chevy dealer in Lincoln. We had a lot of good time and fun parties.
Our sympathy to the family.
Dan & Betty Phillips

We had lots of good times and memories during our youth at St. Al's and Cathedral Boys HS. Our Sympathy to the Forgas Family.

To the Forgas family, Carol & Tom, I wish to send my prayers for the family in this time of sorrow...John and my brothers were good friends. Carol & Tom were my age and Carol worked for my Dad at the Coffee Shop....it seems like just a couple of years ago..God Bless you all!

Lot's of fond memories from St. Als and Cathedral. My condolences to the family.

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