John, you've been in Heaven 14 years now and I still miss you and your amazing smile! Your parents were Awesome as well. Your Dad was our Jr. High School Principal. I Never heard him raise his voice, and he had the ultimate respect of almost evey student. (probably not the bad ones, lol). Your Mom was So sweet and gentle, Your Sweet Spirit and Kindness are an everlasting tribute to them both. It must be beyond belief sharing Heaven with Jesus and your Folks. Can't wait to see you all again...

(Mr. Kriner, you were the most awesome principal!) I remember how proud John was, and it was an honor to graduate with him (fireworks courtesy of Mr....
