DJ, Shelly, Trish, and Bobby:
I remember two things John would say:
1) You have to make it work with what you have, not what you want.
2) People moving on are trying to better themselves, so help them.
Those seem like important words to go forward with.
I told John many times his effect on people:
"You're just like a big boat that goes through the water leaving a huge wake, and anyone that comes along after you can tell you have been there long after you're gone".
He would just smile.
I will make good use of the effort you put in me and I feel your wake still today John. One day after I better myself for the final time I will see you again.
Goodbye good friend.

DJ - We just found out about your Dad..I can't tell you how sorry we were to get that news. John was one of the finest men we have ever known - business-wise and peronally. There was no other place to take our cars, and some years, we kept you all very busy! Our thoughts and prayers are with you, your family, and everyone at Northland Auto Body. John set an example for all of us...he will be missed very much.

DJ and Shelly, Daniel and I are thinking of you and praying for you. Some of my favorite summer memories were spending time with you guys at Uncle Don and Aunt Lou's house, and learning to swim in the lake. What an innocent time that was. Remember we are here for you. Let us know how we can help even it is just to talk about the memories growing up.

Dear John,
I just wanted to tell you how much in life you taught me. There was nothing you couldnt figure out or answer and if you couldnt you would try very hard to come up with one. John you gave so much to me and taught me to take pride in life. This world will never be the same without you john. John i will dearly miss our conversations about the auto industry and talking about the lake and boats with you. I will never forget how when you spoke of your children or significant others just how excited and big you smiled. But john i know you will be with everyone each summer showing everyone a good time and teaching the rights from wrongs. D.J. and Trish and family of john,Im truly am sorry for your great loss and want to let you know how lucky each of you where to have john in your life. John will always be with you and friends and I know he loved you so much,Bobby you Too!. Just remember he will always be in our hearts and with us at all times doing what he did best, Being there when we need him.Thank you john for everything you taught me and others.....

Dear Trish and Dj and Northland Auto Body Employees. Just received the news that John had passed. This news hurts me deeply. I have enjoyed John's friendship for several years. During my mothers illness John would always ask me how she was doing. And if there was anything he could do for me. John Adamson had a heart of gold. John was a great business man to deal with and a wonderful friend to me. I will truly miss him. My heart goes out to each of you. May God be with each of us to ease the pain and the emptiness we all will fell, in the passing of John.
God Bless,
Tom Johnson

I am luckiest girl in town. I was John's"S.O." (significant other). We've been together for the last 5 years. He was my best friend. He loved me so much. He was very much part of my family.
He made me feel safe, secure and happy. I can't stand the thought of never being with him again. He gave me some of the best years of my life. We will miss him forever.
