John was such a great guy. I worked for Grandville Printing. He was always joy to talk to when he came in that front door. John.... Have a wonderful journey. You will be missed.

We loved John like family. We have many fond memories we shared with him, mostly surrounding our shared interest in his grandson's baseball career and our mutual love of Western Michigan. He was larger than life, and we will truly miss him.
