I got to know John when he was renovating my bathroom. He was a lovely man who clearly cared about his work and his clients. My heartfelt condolences.

Our hearts are sad that John no longer walks among us, and that his wife and children and other family are grieving deeply because they now face life without him. How he will be missed!! Such a kind, godly, friendly, sweet-natured man, intelligent, humble, considerate of others, generous, with the gift of warm hospitality, a prayer warrior...My husband and I were privileged to have for many years attended the same church as John and Karen and to have been in their small home group Bible studies they hosted. John's beautiful smile reflected his radiant, joyful spirit. He lived out his Christian faith; he loved & served his family, neighbors & friends, strangers, his church, and his Lord Jesus WELL.

Karen my heart breaks for you today! John was such an amazing man and I always loved having small group at your home. I know it’s been many years since we’ve seen each other or talked, but I think of you often. May God hold you closer in the coming days. Much love - Robin Dix

Dear Mandy,
My heart is aching for you my beautiful friend, I know how hard this is. Your dad was the sweetest and most loving person, from the first birthday party you invited me to in third grade to our Christmas gift swap right before COVID, your dad exuded warmth and love to all. He made everyone feel welcome, no matter what, and had the patience of a saint. I am always so grateful for your family's hospitality and for all the occasions your parents invited Ally & I to break bread at your table. Your dad's warmth, immense kindness, humor, and love lives on within you and your beautiful family. I am so grateful for our friendship and I'm here for you always.
With all my love,
xoxo

Both Karen and John have been a blessing to my family, in more ways that I can mention. It is a blessing to say that he has a brother in the Lord. I’m so sorry to Karen, their children, and to all those who have been affected by this profound loss. My heart is with you all.

My heart just aches hearing this news. My cousin Johnny was the most warm loving genuine person I knew. We didnt see eachother much but, when we did it was like no time had past at all. He always had such a caring way about him that made you feel so important and with that beautiful smile of his that just warmed your soul. I will always cherish those memorable moments. My prayers go out to his loving family.

This is an immeasurable loss for the Trinity family, and I'm sure his family, but a huge gain for Heaven. May the family be sustained with their fondest memories, and the knowledge of his final destination. May he rest in eternal peace.

Bobby and I got to know John when his company designed and constructed our Master bath a few years ago. A man of integrity, John displayed exceptional work ethics that truly reflected his love and devotion to the Lord he served. Our deepest sympathies to Karen and all the family, may you find His strength and peace today and in the days to come. Colleen and Bobby Brown
