My condolences to the family and friends. John was and will always be remembered as a special person by me and he personally meant a lot to me. The attached picture is one he shared with me with great joy and happiness. He loved his family, his dogs, and his friends. The world was a better place with him in it. He will be missed but his wisdom and memory will endure.

John was such an incredible person. Humble, smart, fun, inquisitive, practical, family-oriented. Our fishing trips were non-stop laughing and we enjoyed each other a lot. I will miss him.

To my boss, to my mentor, to my friend John! I will miss you. I will miss your compassion, I will miss your words of wisdom, I will miss your advice, I will miss your sharp intelligence, I will miss your humility, I will miss your sense of humor. You made me a better employee, you made me a better manager, and above all, you made me a better person. Thank you for being an important part of my life. Rest In Peace John!
