It was such an honor to assist John in his day to day life and get to know some of his story. He was definitely a great man and one heck of a jokester. He is and always will be deeply missed and my heart is with his family. You all truly were part of his greatest accomplishments.

As next door neighbors to John and Barbara for 34 years, we knew them well and thought the world of them. They set the highest standard as citizens & as a family. I learned a great deal from John, and will never forget him.
