It´s really sad. I´ve been a huge fan of Gator Boys since I was 6. So 10 years, I´ve been a big fan, Gator Boys had led me to love alligators. It´s sad that I didn´t learn about J-Mart´s death sooner. He was one of my favorites. Rest In Peace, J-Mart. Definitely will be missed by many.

May you rest in peace John. I've watched gator boys in the past. Now they have the series on Amazon. I was sad to hear of John's passing. My heart ❤ is with his family. Thank you for the laughter you brought to many fans.

RIP, to a gator boy who brought laughs to the show with his Cheetos, and to a respectable man (I just read he was a marine). May his light shine in heaven. J-mart

I just started watching Gator Boys and was so looking forward to the next episode he would be in because of his character. Seemed like an all around good guy. John is still reaching people that he never knew.

Once in a while
Someone comes along
That one in a million heart
So pure and so strong
They can face up to the tears
And somehow still find a smile
We only get it
Every once in a while.
I will never forget you brother.
