Regan and family, you are in our thoughts and prayers. May the wonderful memories you have help you through this difficult time. While you will miss him, knowing that he is no longer suffering can sometimes bring comfort. I didn't know Papa John personally, but through Katie she kept me updated from the stories Regan talked about, and I truly believe he is fishing in that big lake in the sky. May he rest in peace.
