I used to crack up at Johns March madness routines...taking time off work to watch TV and scream for the Jayhawks. So sorry for your familys loss. Dont know why, but my kids called him Snickerdoodle when they were little...they are adults now and still refer to him that way.

I had the opportunity of spending my sophomore year at residing at Oliver Hall at KU. The 4th floor, was known as "The Zoo". During this time, I met John, whose nick name was given, "Rowdy". What an amazing, caring and very funny person. So many good memories. I will just share that both John and I had a short lived routine of watching "The Monkees" tv series. I remember him saying, "This so dumb, but funny. Why am I watching this?", as he was laughing. His smile was contagious. We met up again during a 'reunion' at KU, a few years ago. It was so nice seeing and visiting with him. I'm so glad that I was able to hook up with him again, because I was able to give him back the binoculars that he lent me back in the Fall of 86, when I was going to a John Cougar Mellencamp concern. When I gave them to him, he said that he forgot. He was kind about it. John has a gental and caring spirit. Rowdy will always have a special place in heart. Carry on amigo!

Heather, Schuyler, and Jack,

I am so sorry that you are experiencing this loss. I pray you feel God's comfort now and in the days to come. A piece of your heart will be waiting in Heaven, and one day you will be whole again. Until then, know that you are surrounded by family and friends - near and far - that are praying for you, will be your strength when you need it, a shoulder, a hug, a meal...whatever you need. John will be missed.

Love you,

Andra, Robert, Dylan and Garrett Morphew
