Zellee, Denise, and Alecia,

I didn't get to talk with you Friday, but I was there at the service. What a wonderful tribute to an extremely fine man. John was such an excellent example to the many children he coached in Bible Bowl almost 20 years ago when he and I served together in that ministry (and finance later). I know my son Damon benefited from his kindness, patience, and wisdom. I'm so glad I got to speak to him at Homecoming; I'll miss him .... love from all our family - Jan

Y'all, Tracy had to work, but our children (Grayson, Devin Leigh, Samuel, Aidan) and I made it to your service for John on Fri. Miss Zellee, you are beloved of God, His dearest princess. He longs to be with you, so you stay close to Him; and we are all continuing to pray you through this new season of your life. Mr. John is just over Jordan rejoicing with singing and dancing with our Lord. Hallelujah!! Amen. Your sister, jennifer

John was a kind and good man. It was a priviledge to have known him. He touched many by the devotions that he gave. He will be missed by all who knew him.

I didn't get to know John very well. I have met both of you at church and while collecting canned food with the youth group. Please accept my sympathies for John's passing. I know that you and he have been loyal members at FCCR.
