John was a great example of what Simi Valley used to be. Our condolences to Chico and Family.

The world has lost a GREAT man! I feel honored to have known him.

To have known John Varble was a priviledge. To have called him friend an honor! Rest in peace my friend, you will be missed.

Johnny will be missed. In his younger years he was a very close friend of my brother Sid who past away twelve years ago.
