Played Words With Friends with my cousin John for several years. He was always up for a few rounds of bantering about the weather, politics or our family. Even though I never met him face to face I considered him a close family member and friend. Miss you John...keep a comfy recliner nearby for and I'll be along.

We want to express our deepest sadness over the loss of our long time friend JJ and our condolences to Josh and the rest of his family. I'm going to miss our long talks on the phone and my antiquing and Ebay experiences just won't be the same with out him. He was a good hearted person. He was funny,loud and sometimes a little opinionated and that's what we loved about him. May he now rest in peace with his beloved Deb and his son. God bless you JJ, in Jesus name,ahmen.
p.s. He REALLY loves his grandchildren
