Not sure what to say?

I met John at Verizon. We were in the same training class together. He was a great vo worker and friend. He came over many times and had dinner with my family. I talked to him in March and he told me he was in the hospital. I hadn't spoken to him in 4 or 5 years, but we were able to catch up. He was the best sales person and the best motivator I have ever met. Rest easy, my friend.

So saddened to hear of John´s passing. Though I hadn´t seen him in many years, I always considered him a friend. My thoughts and prayers are with the Gibson family...

My heart hurts even though I know you are better now. Thank you John. I miss you.

John!

My Dear friend John,

I had the pleasure of being on John's team for about 4 years. He drove me crazy. He made me laugh and he made me cry. There were times I didn't want to talk to him and sometimes, I didn't. He knew how to push my buttons, and he did it often. He also knew what my strengths were and he continued to guide me into being successful rep.

I am going to miss John he was a wonderful person and a great boss. He will be missed.

My condolences to the Gibson family. John truly was an amazing person and a great supervisor and a great friend. He always made sure he took care of his team and made us feel very valued. He surely will be missed.

We were joined at the hip at Verizon for quite some time and John made it the funnest and best time I've ever had at a workplace. Not only the best leader but also our most cherished friend. He was absolutely amazing at keeping in touch with everyone and always wanted to make sure you felt part of his team. How many times did he feed the entire center ?! Too many to count. He made countless "face cakes" for birthdays and celebrations.
Gibby, thanks for everything. We love you.

I worked with John here in Albuquerque and he was such a wonderful man. John always made our team into a family. He was always cooking for us and I have never found a meatball better than his. I gonna miss you Gibby. Thanks for being my friend.

His obituary is so heart warming. He must have been a beautiful person. My deepest sympathies to the family.
