I just now learned of your passing. You were a great friend.
I have never seen someone with so much strength to move on through so much adversity. I loved watching the interaction with you and your beloved dog, Eddie.
I'm sorry I missed your celebration of life.
My condolences to the family. May the happy memories you have of him last through your life.

As a boy growing up next door to the Douglas', we would often hear John come outside and yell, "Where's my crew?" Within seconds, 5 or 6 of us neighbor boys were running toward the Douglas home to "help" John work on one of his car projects. This was usually always followed up with a trip to Baskin Robins as payment. It was awesome. It was also pretty magical to go fishing in Betsy Bus and Betsy Boat. John and Joanne were also our first employers as my brother and I proudly got to take care of the Douglas Grounds. Neighbors like John are not common today. Thanks for the sweet memories, JD. Joanne, Tracy and Julie, we love you and our prayers are with and for you. I am and always will be, a proud member of John's "Crew".

Johnny D. Will miss you every day my friend. We spent 15 years fishing together @ strawberry making up all the fish tales we could. You told the definition of a fisherman is a jerk waiting for a jerk. All the life experiences, stories & cars you have loved that made up your life. We shared unlimited laughs & special times. Glad that I was a big part of it for 40 years. You called me your little brother a lot. May you be out of pain & be resting peacefully & driving a fast car.
