Not sure what to say?

I met John Singleton when he walked into the office I work at in August of 2016 for prices on insurance. He bought policies that day. I helped him many times since and always enjoyed helping him. I knew from the start he was a very intelligent man. I enjoyed his dry since of humor. I know he lovingingly cared for his wife while she was residing in a nursing home.

John was a fine man. My memories are so sweet of my dance years with Lady Leah. I remember John Singleton fondly. He was so kind. And he was quick to make little side jokes to lighten the mood when Lady Leah was not happy with us.

John and his wife, Mary, were indispensable members of the Lady Leah dance family.

I am fortunate to have known these people who gave me valuable life lessons.

John Singleton, I pray you are in the loving arms of our Lord and your...

I'm Mary's first cousin. John kept our family aware of things happening in Uncle Tom and Aunt Mary's family. I'm very sorry for your loss.

My mother was Mildred Arthur Reeds, Tom's sister.

Johnny was like a big brother to me. He helped me get settled in here when I moved back from Alaska, putting up TVs, curtain rods, fixing computer and cell phones. And, when Senior Bus couldn't get me to doctor appointments in Lake Charles Johnny always could. Amazon returns he was great at also. I don't have car. He watched over me and was always there when I needed help. I will miss him something fierce. Enjoy your time with Mary in heaven Johnny.

Brad, Joy, and family members,
I know the loss of father, grandfather, and uncle will be forever in your heart, but just remember he loved you too. John Singleton was a great person and enjoyed helping others. His selfless devotion to others is a great example for us all

John and Mary have been great family friends to Tom, Corinne and Stuart Griggs for several years. Tom passed in 2018. We’re so sorry for the family’s loss. John was a genuine friend that everyone would like to have. He will be greatly missed.

John, you will be missed by the many friends who benefited from your kindness and loving spirit in the adventures of motorcycle traveling and eating out. You and Mary were always there to greet us and make us feel so welcome as "newbies" to motorcycle owners. God's blessings are with you and your family as you take the last wonderful ride to be with Mary.
