You will be greatly missed by your friends on the eastside.

I Always enjoyed his yearly visit when he stoped by at my tree lot in cascade. He always had such great stories of family and friends..A true Cascadian who was loved by many. He was taken so soon.. My heart filled sympathy to family and friends.

Please accept sympathies from another firefighter family (Cascade.) Jerry and John will have a lot of catching up to do.

We we were so shocked and saddened to learn the news. John was an wonderful, amazing man who was loved by many; as he loved many, as well. So kind, so funny, and we were all blessed that he was in our lives. We shall always treasure the wonderful memories that we were able to share. Our love and condolences are with John's entire family.

It was my pleasure to work with John in the EMS world, and the Fire Department, in the earlier years. I also knew his father at MBT Co.
