Dear Cousin Terry,
John's face lit up with pride, amusement and love when he talked about you. I can't believe the vital, healthy and humorous fellow that we spent the evening and morning with just 6 weeks ago has passed. God must be in need of passionate angels right now because there is just no other explanation for why such a fun, dynamic man should no longer be among us. We are so very sorry for your loss. We celebrate the years of fun, family and prosperity that John spent with you. We'll remember John with that sparkle in his eye when he smiled. Sending you our sincerest condolences wrapped in love and Prestwood hugs!
