Really a great father of a very dear friend who I met at the lake. John and Yvonne are together again in Heaven. I only hope he is riding 'shot gun' and can help Yvonne in her 'drag racing'. God Speed John. Neil

Find memories of John and Yvonne as we were growing up. Thinking of the entire family during this difficult time and in particular my “brother from another mother”, Ed.

I worked with John at Niswonger Chevrolet in the early 90s. He was a great guy!
