Cara, I was very sad when Tara told me that John had passed away. Remembering the times at Chestnut when John would come into work around 5a, and would stand in the window and startled both Tara and I! My heart grieves with you, I know you love John very much. GOD will see you through this!
LOVE, Sharon ♥

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Moellenhoff's and Walter's families. Sounds like John was a great man here on earth and had much to offer those who knew him, father, husband, friend and family. He leaves behind a big whole that only God can fill. Hugs again, David and Christine

John had brought so much laughter and joy to my life growing up being his friend in High School. My memories of him driving his three in the tree pickup truck will forever be etched in my memory bank. I feel so blessed to have been his friend and will forever miss his contagious laugh. I love and miss ya Buddy!
Cara and the kids continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. Heaven gained an awesome Angel and I am sure he has the other Angels rolling in laughter with his great...

Brother John, way too early for you to leave us. Scott and I were fans. I got to work with you in professional settings. You were a great human, now, you’re gonna be a great Angel. You’ll be missed.

I would like to give my greatest sympathy to the Walters family and the Moellenhoff families for the loss of your loved one. John was a great father and husband and I had the pleasure meeting John many years ago and I can see that he was a wonderful family man. Prayers for you all to continue to heal from this terrible loss.
