God Bless you always John! You will be truly missed. Thanks for being a wonderful friend!

John you will be missed by many. We love you.

John leaves many friends in his neighborhood, the North Slope Historic District, where he visited daily with folks as they walked by him working in his yard. John's love of animals, especially cats and dogs, and his enjoyment of growing things left all he met with a feeling that there is good in this world, and John shows how to nurture it. We miss him, but will not forget to care for living things, both plants and animals, in his memory. Thanks, John.
