Johny
I will never forget the first time I met you. I believe I was 8 or 9 years old. You came in my house down 138 orton Marotta Way with my sister and you had a scalley hat and a long trench/ P coat on. You gave me a thousand hockey sticks, hockey pucks, and skates. I think you borrrowed it all from a professional hockey team's locker room. From there our relationship grew and grew. For someone who wasn't my blood. You became like a father and a brother and a mentor all in one. We did so much over the years together good and bad, but no matter what I always trusted you with my life. I will miss all the things we use to talk about. We use to talk about anything and everything. I will miss your laugh.I will miss your advice. I will miss you. I know in the end physical you were sick. So who knows maybe God saved you the pain, and your resting in peace. That i can only pray. This I do know 4 me I will MISS my brother/father/mentor with all my heart. I also know my god child /neice or as you would say (bum bum) and my nephew Johny will carry on your memory. I will always be there 4 them lke you were for me. I LUV YOU JOHNY BYE BYE

Dear John,
I Love you, I miss you so much. I still can't believe your gone. You were my best friend and the best brother a sister could have. Everytime I look at your art picture you made me I think of you and it puts a smile on my face. I have so many funny and good memories of you. John you will never leave my heart. I really hope there is a God and you are safe and you have met your brother Robin in heaven. John your memories will live on with your family. Until we meet again I will love you always
Your Sister,
Diane

I love you so much Dad. I am going to miss you and think of you everyday. And some day when I wed and have children I will hope that you will be next to me, whispering I love you bumbum. I hope you have found peace and will expect you to watch over us always and forever. I will never forget your laugh, your calm ways, and of course your dance moves. I love you Daddy
