Not sure what to say?

Can´t believe it´s been 11 years, I think of John frequently & miss him always

John...we know you are still racing down the 1320...there are no red lights in heaven...the tree is always green!

Linda, Amanda and family. We are so sorry about John. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and John. God bless you all. Love, Steven & Christine Runza and family

Linda, Amanda & Family,
Sorry to hear about John's passing. We went to school together and raced cars together. He always had a smile. He had so many friends and would keep in contact with them. He absolutely loved the "wagon" and drag racing. He just loved getting the front tires off the ground. So many memories come to mind. He was a great person and will be missed. God bless.

Linda & Amanda, so sad to hear of your loss, John was always there for me & he will be missed every day, one couldn't ask for a better friend, he will be missed by many, Godspeed John

I last saw John at the Dover Reunion at Marcus Dairy 2 years ago...it was great to see him and the rest of the old Dover gang. My condolences to his wife and family..he will surely be missed. Hopefully he is already "bench racing" and talking shop with some of the other guys like Dick Hampe in Horsepower Heaven!!

Linda,
Our prayers go out to you & the Gunn family. I had lots of fun back in the day with the race cars & hanging out at the old Dairy Queen with all our fast cars. He will be missed. He sure did know how to build a fast motor. We are sharing in your loss as well

Linda,
So very sorry to hear of your loss, my sympathy to you and you family;

I can't begin to tell you how sorry we are for your loss. John was a great man with a heart of gold. Skip and I used to be there on almost a daily basis. We watched Amanda grow up. Our daughter Cheri-Lyn and Amanda spent lots of time playing in the shop and the other end of the garage. John was always known for saying certain race car parts like a header, etc were "irreplaceable"... John truly IS "IRREPLACEABLE"... Hw was one of a kind. Skip and I truly cared for John,as we care for Linda...
