I can't believe it's been ten years buddy! Sitting here thinking back to when I moved to Bethel Park when I was ten and you were the first friend I had in school. That was 5th grade. Our dad's were best friends thru their masonic lodge. I remember us pedaling our bikes all the way out to Mineral Beach Pool out past Trax Farms too! All the Estes rockets we shot up over the woods behind your folk's house. You were my childhood best friend. Your family was always so kind to me too. Thanks for that friendship and RIP old friend.

Dang John, you left us way too soon. You were a great friend to me when we were growing up! You'll be missed.

John when I first met you, you saved me from myself. I used to tell people that I had to learn to be less wild at Waynesburg from my crazy High School days and you were the one who did that.
You then taught me things like how to use a screwdriver and how to drive a standard transmission and you did that in a high accumulation of snow. Even in college you helped me to understand what a coax cable was. That was my make-up speed semester when my Mom died and you got one from the communications lab and took it apart for me while I read in my physics book.
You really were just starting to teach me how to cook. Maybe Shirley will continue this.
You complimented me. You were my other half. Right now I can't move without you.

Rest in peace, John.
Sue-Ellen, you are in our thoughts and prayers.
