Not sure what to say?

We were next door neighbors and car enthusiasts for years. We miss hearing "John's garage" rumble from time to time. Call me when you can Judy. God be with you and your family now and always. God rest John's soul until you meet again. Warm regards, John & Andrea

I will miss the good talks over coffee (and me interrupting his breakfast with his lovely wife) about cars and what ever else our combined intelligence (or lack of) came up with.
I can remember meeting him over my dream car the '57 Bel Air, that was for sale and no matter how I tried to low ball him he wouldn't budge.
I could always count on the Fireman vs Poiceman ribbing that he gave and took with a big smile.
John always had a smile and I knew from the first that he was a...

Sorry to hear about John. Most of us at the Denver Fire Department didn't hear about John's passing until two weeks later. Even though we hadn't kept in very close contact after he retired, he will be missed.

My sincere sympathy to the Maca family. May God give you comfort at this difficult time. Psalms 55:22.

John at Lisa's wedding in 2003

John in Sept 2012 for Grandson Asher's 1st birthday wearing his Lorax mustache.

Even though we were divorced in 2004, our friendship continued and I still thought the world of John and of you too Judy. We had truly become one big happy family and I'll treasure the times we all have had together. We are with you Judy and will not allow those wonderful strings of friendship to be snipped. We love you and pray for you, your boys and the grandkids and all of us begin our grieving process. God Bless Always.

John was a great Brother-in-Law and a loving Uncle to my daughter. He had a heart of gold and a great sense of humor. Worked with him on Hot Times Kool Cars for many years. I'll miss him and I'm praying for all his family.

John was one of the nicest people in the world. He would drop what he was doing to help you with what ever you needed. John was the first to give you crap about anything, but end it with a smile. I am going to miss seeing him in the Cafe. He was one of my BEST customers from the First Saturday that we were open to his Last Saturday that he shared on this earth. John was an inspiration to me in how i want to live my life and be a great man. John I don't know how many times I can say this ...
