John, We knew each other from NAVSEACENPAC. We bumped into each other a few times in the Commissary and would chat for a while each time. I will always remember those times with reverence. Goodby my friend.

My dear friend John, I will miss you so much. You and Carol were there for me when Bill passed on and when I found out I had cancer. You supported me in so many ways. Peace my friend, you will be missed in so many ways.

My dad , the rock in my life

Dear , Dad
I can't believe that you are gone , you never said you were leaving you promised to be with us for a long time . I wanted to thank you for being a great dad I'm proud to have had the honor of having you as long as I did , you have been the rock in my life getting us thru all the hard times in life. You never complained and you always saw the bright side of things.
I knew you were hurting although you would say, and I can see you were suffering the pain was in your eyes but yet you keeper a smile on your face.
I wanted to comfort you,to hold you as we sat with you that day, you looked so helpless and frail right there were you laid.
I watched as you shivered from the pain in your body and I wondered how was I going to handle if you were going to be gone.
You said you were fine , I think you were protecting us .
I knew in my heart your time was so near
I stood there watching as each breath came slow , and fought to find courage , my emotions were low as I promised you I would be strong and not cry .you never saw my eyes were they were dry.
I held your hand as I silently said goodbye I knew in my heart that soon you would die. I stroked your forehead and said how much I loved you , you nodded and I knew that you knew .
As we said goodbye , I no longer cared my tears I can't hide I stood there waiting for you to say good bye.
Please rest in peace , now that you are gone , I promise we will be ok as we go on. Thank you again for making me so strong.
You will be missed , but your memory will live within me.
I love you so much , your daughter ,

It is with a very sad heart that I write here. It is the unexpected loss that hurts the worst. I cannot even imagine the hurt that Carol and so many family members are going thru at this moment. My prayers go out to them and evryone that had the priviage of being John's friend. I will miss you my friend Rest in Peace.
