Not sure what to say?

I already miss getting to be around you! You really turned my mind three-sixty very often as to what's important here and now. I have no doubt you are belting out a million beautiful songs up there for HIS glory.

Dear John,
I feel so honored to have been able to take you to mass on several occasions. I really loved listening to your stories in the truck and your singing in the church. You were always so kind and patient with everyone. I wish you peace in Heaven, and I thank you for being a part of my life!

I knew Jack from 5pm Saturday Mass at Immaculate Conception Church. Though I didn't really connect with him until I got to know him a monthly lunch group for those of us who shared a similar political perspective Week after week after Mass he would update us on the progress of his book or movie. would love to hear from his family what was up with that. We will miss him very much at 5pm Mass & were grateful for his presence - and his generous support of my city council campaigns.

John had such vision for mechanical attributes. He was a humble and knowledgeable man on many subjects. He was a great neighbor. Pat and Betty Maher

JJ, Your going to missed, with all your great stories and sense of humor. It's been too bad we've missed our lunches recently-really enjoyed them as well as all who attended. At least the last couple of years we had our phone conversations. It's been a real pleasure knowing you, and from one of your favorite quotes-"Many more happy landings".
Your Friends, Al & Lynn Brown-Anacortes,Washington

With lots of love from the "other" JJ (Janelle Johnson Scarber - Heath Tecna). I will miss you, your laugh, humor & love so very much. Goodbye my friend, JJ.

Oh john I will truly miss your Stories and your beautiful singing voice! You were my favorite client and always looked forward to seeing you at the salon. Your bravery and service you did will live on. May you be at peace.

All of us will miss him. So glad he got to see his great- grandson,Brendan when he and his mom visited. Brendan still talks about that visit and shares his love of all things military.
Rest in peace,Grandad.
