I am so very sorry Paul M for the loss of your brother John! My condolences Paul to your mother and family! The written obituary legacy celebration of life is beautiful! Wow what an amazing man, brother, son, father and grandfather! You can truly see his devoted in all aspects of life! A very admirable quality just like Paul! Dad obviously set an amazing foundation for his children but I've but I've turned out so well!! Dad was waiting for his son at the Pearly Gates his wings were ready our hearts are not but at least they're together! I am so sorry for your loss!! The joy of retirement cut too short we don't always understand why we go through the pain we do but the best always go first! The closest to God leave nearest around Easter I've noticed. Until you meet again live for him doing what he loved in remembrance of the joy he brought you and bring in return!!

My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. He was my daughters neighbor. A good friend, always smiling, always outside with the radio on, playing the best music. Always willing to lend a helping hand. Peace and Love.
