Tawny & family,
I am very sorry to learn of your loss. I remember watching your Dad on the news growing up. I know we teased Tawny at Emmanuel about her "movie star" Dad! I know he will be missed dearly by those who knew him. My prayers are for God to give His Perfect Peace to you all, esp. during the Holidays. Just know he is celebrating Christmas this year like never before, in person with the Savior! "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord".

My thoughts and prayers are with John and his family. I greatly enjoyed working with John for 2 years at WTVY-TV in the 70's. He imparted much wisdom to all those around him.

Dear Ellen, Tawny, Tracy and Patrick, So many years have passed since I last saw John or any of you. My time in Dothan was short, but I have many fond memories from that period, including having dinner with you all and attending a Martial Arts Tournament. I had received updates on John through my parents, as well as Bobby and Sue, and my family and I have been praying for you during this time. We are sorry for your loss, and we will continue to pray for God's Mercy, Grace and Peace to strengthen you. May The Lord bless and keep you all.

Dear Mrs. Williams and Family: Ken and I are your neighbors on Overlook Drive. Perhaps you've seen our red "G" hanging from our lamppost. I just wanted to say how sorry we are for your loss. Ironically we were all at GA the same time as John. My prayers are with you and your family during this time. Ken and Diane Squires

I am so saddened to hear of John's death. We were childhood friends and graduated from high school together. I always enjoyed our vistits at high school reunions and other such brief chances to catch up. He was such a fine person. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Dear Ellen and family, I was so sorry to hear about John. I thank God for giving me the gift of calling him "Friend". The years I cut John's hair and was in church with you was a blessing. He always had a smile and a laugh. He looked at the positive and loved his family. He was so studied in history and I loved hearing his stories. He was welcomed home, I'm sure, by his precious grandmother whom he loved dearly. I felt like I knew her so well for he talked of her fondly. He was like a ray of sunshine and I am thankful that he was along my path of life. You are in my prayers. In Christ Love

John was truly unique. His infectious big smile, good looks, friendly demeanor and outgoing personality made you feel at ease and genuinely welcome around him. He served his country well with his dignified military service. His television presence and presentation made you know that he had carefully researched every topic and you were comfortable in believing that what he said was factual.
My heart is with his daughters, his son and his grandchildren and especially with his sweet and dear wife, Ellen. I am praying God is carrying you through these days and those to follow. I am only one among very, very many who will miss him and I am honored to have been one of his friends.
