I worked with John many ages ago in Boone. He was a genuinely nice guy. My condolences to his family and all who knew him.

I was saddened to learn of John's passing and saddened even more to realize that such a good person left this earth at such an early age. I will miss seeing John at church where I admired his quiet and loving way he interacted with Kristen and their three children. Kristen, may God surround you and the children with his love as you go forward. Genevieve Butler
