I am so sorry for your loss, John was a great guy, I'm glad I got the chance to come out to Durango and spend time with John and his family, great people, John will be greatly missed, my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

In our mind, John was the epitome of what all people should be. He was kind, moral, ethical and an extremely hard worker. He will be sorely missed. I will always remember shaking hands with John and having to count my fingers afterwards. His grip, even though he tempered it for a weakling like me was like a vise. He was a man's Man. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

This is terribly sad news. I worked with John on many projects over many years. You couldn't find a harder worker, or a nicer person to work with. Humble and honest. I feel very fortunate to have known him. He loved his family so much, and this will be a huge loss for them, and I wish the best for them. Mark Galbraith

My husband, Mark Galbraith, and I have worked with John Serwe on many projects. He was always excellent in his work, very patient, kind, and with good humor. When you were around him you would note- Now there´s a fine human being. Thank you John.

Many hugs to Chris and the kids. I'm so sorry for their loss - so huge and unexpected. I know this pain well. Keeping you in my prayers.

The memory of John will stay with me all the days I'll see. He had a true gift in so many areas. Our construction paths diverged and I saw less of him over the years, but the remembrance of what a fantastic person he was will never leave me. I also think of his talent every time I visit a large custom home that he helped become a part of my family. I have no doubt he will be sorely missed.
