Rest in Peace John. We never got to know each other real well but i was glad to have known you. I remember dancing with you at Bob's 70th Birthday Party. I had fun as I know you did. You were good to Sandy and made her happy and that is what matters. Goodbye my nephew-in-law.

to Sandy and John, I am glad I was there to help out when you both needed me. John Winkie will always remember you being at OTB. all we did was ask where John was and he would say Johns at OTB.And Willie he would not leave your side. I hope they have a lot of macaroni in HEAVEN and don`t forget the salad. John I will miss you very much, and remember when I said I would see you again well I meant that I would see you on the other side.And so will your Loving Wife Sandy. May You Rest In Peace Until that day Arrives.Thank You for Loving my sister as much as you did. Good Bye My Brother{in law).

I've know Johnny since my early childhood, and always considered him to be a part of my extended family. I worked with him on construction during my teenage years, and admired his quick wit, as well as his work ethic. He wasn't a big man, but he had a big heart. John was the proverbial "stand up" guy who truly loved his friends and his family. I feel his loss more than I can ever express.
