Not sure what to say?

I was so stunned and saddened to hear of John's passing. A friend and former colleague, I will never forget John sharing (with great pride!) the videos his brother sent him from the war. And though this is on a much lighter note, I also won't foget how excited he was when he bought this cool new toothbrush a couple years ago and it made his teeth so darned white! He was so excited about that!
I will miss you, John.

Bill, Clarice - For more than 30 years I have loved you as friends and so, have shared happy and sad moments with you. May the love of our Blessed Mother, who shares your pain in the loss of a son, console you. You have much to be proud of. You are always in my prayers.

My condolences to the family and fiance. My heart is broken as i just heard of John's passing. He was a great and wonderful friend, and i am deeply sadden by our loss. I will never forget him and i will continue to celebrate his life.

Although I never knew John, I have had the opportunity to work with his father and I wish to extend my deepest condolences to the Leonard family. Please gain strength from your friends and community during this difficult time.

Our deepest sympathies go to the Leonard family, Alex Oprescu and everyone whose life was touched by John. John was such a nice, caring person. He was taken too soon from this Earth and will be greatly missed.

J.W. has left me with some very fond memories. He was a fantastic friend and a fine person to emulate. My thoughts and prayers are with all those whose life was touched by J.W.

My sincere condolences go out to the Leonard family. John was a great man and will be missed.

I have great memories of traveling to distant places with John. I will always remember the laughs we shared over a few pints in europe or after a long day on the trail in Peru. He was a good friend and a great person.

You were the best friend I ever had. We had a great time together and I will treasure those times. My life will never be complete knowing you can never now be a part of it as my friend. You made me a better person, and I will always be grateful. You had a quality about you that no one else I've known can emulate. You were such a genuine, kind, good person. I always thought you had a beautiful soul.

My heart is breaking for your family and your fiance.
