My deepest condolences to the Sokalski family. I worked with John in community theater at the Arts Consortium. He was a delightful spirit. He often had dan & Andrea with them. I was the King in Pippin. I pray that God's peace will comfort you all at this difficult time

John and I went from co-workers at Papa John's, to close friends of nearly 10 years. He was very bold and had a wonderful sense of humor! He will be missed dearly. My heart goes out to everyone who was lucky enough to know this wonderful man! God Bless you John!
Love always,
Michelle Wurster and family

Leano, I am so sorry for your loss. Even though I never met John, I feel like I know him from all the stories you have told me. My heart goes out to you and his children. I will keep you in my prayers.
