Not sure what to say?

I am sad to hear of John´s passing. I knew John in high school and played football with him. I remember John as a good person and friend.

Just found out about John's passing. What a great guy..... and a great lawyer. John gave me a great opportunity when I first graduated law school and I always remember that. I felt overpaid ! And yes, his love of music was legendary. Rest in Peace, John. You made a difference in this world !

Rest In Peace John I truly loved enjoying the UT law school experience with you. You were so intelligent and interesting and you parlayed that into a great life what a beautiful contribution to society with your love of music snd law

Jim and I offer our deepest sympathies. A man with a strong core and strong character, to be admired.

I remember your energetic musicianship at Dan Rodriguez' jam sessions in Temperance. You always had a request for me to sing "Too Much Stuff" while you played that wild harmonica. R.I.P. John.

Years ago, I was a young Security Officer in the downtown Toledo Sky Rise where Mr. Potts' office was. He was always kind to me when I would interact with him. Rest in Peace, Sir.

Only fond memories, the blues goes down, the best goes up. God bless you John and your loved ones. Your longtime friend and more-than-often, true admirer, -Jerry

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
