Not sure what to say?

John will be missed very much as we traveled together on company business, I have shared many laughs and conversations with John that we just bonded like 2 brothers, we were family on the road taking care of each other, John's heart was huge when it came to his family, God knew John's heart and his feelings toward people as he was a person you can't get upset with even if you tried.
We had alot of good laughs, he had a very good sence of humor.

He was a great person to know. Even though I only knew him for a short time, while he was doing SAP training at Ambridge, I could tell he was well liked by many people and will be greatly missed. God Bless!

My prayers and heartfelt sympathy goes out to his mom, dad, brothers, sister and the rest of his family.
John, You will always be remembered and not forgotten.

John was my trusted and valued friend at 111th Coil Processing and recently at Westmont in IT. He was a unique strong person with a kind heart. I will miss him.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Having had the great fortune of meeting "Big John" (or "Kahuna" as he was sometimes called back in the day) more than 20 years ago and working closely with him for several years back at the North Plant and out at RCP, I came to know him as a good listener, a patient teacher, and GOOD MAN! I was also lucky enough to have shared many a "cold one" with him; I...
