Not sure what to say?

Uncle Johnny was a delightful presence in all of our lives. Always so kind and loving. We will miss him very much.
Love, Kathy, Neal, Andy and Kate

Not only did you inspire me to become an independent man, but you taught me that if I didnt stop to look around and appreciate the value of life I would never truly love life. A mentor, a friend, and the best grandfather ever. I miss you more everyday. I love you.

Johnny, I imagine you and your cousin, Bud Gibson, will now again have bets on the Raider-Charger games, like you used to have.

Uncle John, We will think of you often, and miss you very much. Thankyou for being my Grandma (Evelyn Marcum's) brother and for all the wonderful memories.
The world was most definitly a better place for having you in it.
God Bless you, Aunt Neva, Barb, Julie, Richard and all your families.

Great Uncle Johnny - You will be missed by all and since you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we know we will see you again in heaven. Love, Jim & Laurie

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
John 3:16

I will never forget years ago, going for Friend NE to visit Grandma Redman and Uncle John and Aunt Neva would come to visit Memorial week-ends. I loved to listen to Uncle John's stories and hear him laugh. Uncle John, you will be missed so much. I love you. When you see my Grandpa and Grandma Marcum, give them a hug from me. Have a wonderful journey. Love Always, Sharon

Even though Johnny was my cousin, I often thought of him as "One of My Funny Uncles." If you ever needed cheering up, you could go to Johnny. My best times with him were at the Redman reunions about 45 years ago held at Frank & Cora's house in Friend, Nebraska. I will always remember you with a smile, Johnny. Thanks. My prayers for Neva and the family are constant. See you later.
Love, Sandie Gibson-Birlauf

As a friend of Johnny's daughter Barbara, I spent many teenage years basking in the warm glow of that wonderful smile, and enjoying the music of his laugther. Thanks for always welcoming me in your home. Hugs to Neva, Barb, Rich & Julie

About 48 years ago I was 14 years old and spent a lot of time at the Redman's home in Alameda. I've have wonderful memories how John and Neva always treated me. John will always be in my thoughts and may he rest in peace.
