Passed by the old homestead and former gun shop on Northcrest today. I was told of John's sudden and tragic death. My best to all the family, of whom I have many fond memories, from Michael's grade school friend. I have been trying to get in touch with you for many years now. May God grant you peace and comfort.

Happy Birthday, John!

I’m not sure why God needed to take you so soon. Life is very difficult without your brotherly hugs and kisses, your e-mails and calls, your smile and laughter, and all your words of advice. We all love you and miss you so much.
