To John's Family,
We remember what a great husband and Daddy he was. Going for walks with the dog and kids. Either on his back or in the wagon. Always will remember his smile! Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

John with Austin and Kaitlyn.
I think of John often and I know he is watching over his family from above. His memories live on in his son Austin and daughter Kaitlyn. John is a true hero and we will always miss him. His wife Susie is also a hero for all that she does to keep his memory alive.
