Sending all the best to you and your family during these tragic times. I have very fond memories of the vulnerability, conversation and bonding with John. We were in treatment together back in 2017 in Austin. After getting out, our lives kept intersecting over and over in seemingly random ways.

My heart breaks to hear of the loss of your beautiful son John. My son Ryan was with John at Jaywalker and described him as a great person and friend who loved to golf and ski with him. I can't say that I fully understand your pain but I can imagine it as I have for 15 years now with Ryan. Addiction is a relentless disease that doesn't discriminate. I am so sorry for your loss.

Dear Vivie, My prayers are with you and your family during this hard time. Thank you for sharing John´s story in such a beautiful, honest way.

It was an honor to bring a special song for the service of Mr. John O'Sullivan. Better Together by Jack Johnson. A piece of John's spirit lives within us all.

Vivie & Chris, I just learned of your tragic loss. It is safe to say that my words will fall short - just know that you are on my mind and in my prayers.

What a Tribute. Vivie and family, we are heartbroken to hear this news and send you prayers of serenity and peace in this difficult time. So many enjoyable memories of SJS and lower school carpooling popped into my head upon hearing of John´s loss. He was such a kind soul with a fun and energetic nature and way of doing things. Prayers for strength, - The Collins

Letty, Vivid and Chris, Our deepest condolences to you and all the family on John´s passing. Robert Young and Terri Nelson
