Not sure what to say?

John was an amazing student and we were proud to have him in our program. We knew he was going to be a great SPED instructor and the kids were going to be lucky to have him. We are keeping John's family and friends in our thoughts and prayers. Rest in peace John.

My heart goes out to his family. John was truly one of a kind. The best co worker I ever had! We worked so well together, WE put TEAMWORK to use in the classroom. The love he had for the students was exceptional! He loved and cared for them as if they were his own. WOW you will truly be missed buddy. Rest Peaceful
