Uncle John
I am so glad that I got to meet you and that you were part of life even if it was for just a short time. Everytime I think about you I remember the jokes you told and how I could not stop laughing. I miss you, and you will always be in my heart and my prayers.

Not only were you my older brother, but you were my friend, mentor and hero. I don't question why the good Lord took you too young,I only know that you'll be with Him. The hug and kisses you gave me in your last days have and will continue to comfort me. I will miss you more than I can say. I am so glad my girls got to meet you. You'll forever be in my heart and on my mind. I love you John. Michael

They say that all people create happiness - some by their arrival, others by their departure. Jacky brought a cheerfulness into every room he entered. With fondest memories.

Dear, dear, dear, dear JoAn
My heart bleeds for you.
What a GREAT loss, John is to you.
What a great loss of a friend, John is to me.
John was such a wonderful, cheerful, vibrant human being. He was the highlight of my career. One of the very few who understood me. He was that kind of a guy, who could make people happy. I'm going to miss his rich, distinctive baritone voice and chuckle. I love that man from afar. NO words can express the significance of John's passing. He has touched many lives in an exemplary way.
God bless you, JoAn. You are in our hearts and prayers; and remember, John is ALWAYS smiling at you from above.
