John Busso Obituary
There will be intentions of the Mass for John the following dates and places:
Saturday, August 19, 2023, 5:00 PM at St. Christopher's Church in Baldwin, New York
Saturday, September 2, 2023, 9:00 AM at The Basilica of St Paul's in Daytona Beach, Florida
Sunday, November 12, 2023, 9:00 AM at St. Joseph's Church on Corona Ave. in Colorado Springs, Colorado
In addition there will be multiple other ongoing prayer services. A burial service has not yet been determined and will be advised.
Everyone adored John and we are devastated by this tremendous loss. He was such a handsome, charismatic young man. His magnetic personality, kind and loving demeanor drew many friends to him wherever he went. He was quite stylish. He always looked and smelled great with many collections of shoes, watches and cologne. He was a hero to many and served our country in the US Army. John was a brilliant driller, the best in his field working with Precision Drilling in Idaho and Colorado. He was a hard worker and also a certified fitness trainer. He grew up in Queens NY and lived on Long Island in Baldwin NY where he graduated High School.
John was interested in helping animals and appreciated the Colorado Springs Humane Society. He wanted to help others and animals in need. If there are charities you believe in, in lieu of flowers please donate. Life will never be the same here without him. May God bless him. His many relatives and friends that passed before him are probably celebrating with him now in Heaven.

OH MY SON,
You yearned for a new life here,
Past due memories to be made, my dear...
But God had another plan,
You had it hard, a weary man...
He took you above, way too soon...
My prayers and love, beyond the moon.
Do you hear my cries, see my broken heart...
through gray skies, many miles apart?
I miss you my son, rest in peace now.
Help me to go on, show me how.
Love always and forever,
Mom

Happy Heavenly Birthday my son. I miss you every second of every day.
Was thinking of the melted ice cream cake today and all your funny antics. You made me so very happy and I was very proud of the man you became.

Two years ago, God took you away.
Needed here, you couldn't stay.
Lost without you, come what may.
Faith in Jesus will help me through...
Until God brings me back to you.
I think of you in Heaven above,
Praying you're surrounded by love.
We're really not that far apart,
For you are always with me...in my heart.

Our love was that once in a lifetime, only happens in the movie's type of love. I am so blessed to have shared that with you for 13 years, most dont experience it in their lifetime. The words I miss you don't even begin to explain how I feel. I love you forever.

How do I get through...
Another New Year, without you?
I miss you with all my heart,
Too many years, we were apart.
My memories help me everyday,
My grief for you won't go away.
I'll see you again in God's Kingdom,
Enjoy His Heavenly peace & freedom.
I love you my son...forever,
Mom

Some days are harder than others...not sure why. It could be a song that plays, a line in a movie, driving by somewhere that you and I have been together, hearing or seeing something that I wish I could tell you all about, thinking about an inside joke we had, a thought a memory of something over the last 13 years. I am numb except the pain I feel in my heart. I can only hope that the pain some how lessens over time. I miss the way you would make me laugh even when I would be so mad at you, or the way you tried to annoy me because I was "so cute" when I was mad. I miss putting my cold feet on your legs. And the way you would hold me and kiss my forehead. I miss all the little things, the everyday things that I took for granted. I love you forever and always.

I thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too.
I think of you in silence.
I often speak your name.
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is my keepsake
with which I'll never part.
God has you in his keeping,
I have you in my heart.
Until we meet again in God's heavenly kingdom, I will miss you with all that's left of my broken heart. I miss you my son.
Love Always and Forever, Mom

I just found a picture of him and wounded what ever happened to him it's Nov 2, 2024 and I saddened by the News. So we met when I was 19 years old and I was on my way to join the military. We met at the airport and it was my first time ever getting on the plane. We were sitting next to each other and he could see I was afraid so he tried comforting me by introducing his self. He then asked me my name and where I was heading I told him I was going to the army he said we was too. Then he called the airplane Stuartist and asked if they had a bag incase I was going to vomit and explain to her that it was my first time flying and if she could give me some wings . He told me to relax and calm down. Everything was going to be OK. We spent the whole flight talking about Queens and the Bronx, because he was from Queens and I was from the Bronx. Then we got to basic and were in the same Barricks together. We hung out every day until we left for our duty station. He was always a good friend to me. I wish we would have keeper in touch, but as young men we didn't really know how to. You are missed Bro Rest in peace.
The kind of love story that only happens in the movies<br />

Thank you for making me laugh and never letting me forget how much you loved me. I will cherish all of my momentos!

Seven months ago today,
you left, you couldn't stay.
I know you're with our Lord above,
our family and friends...surrounded by love.
Everyday I call your name,
Life will never be the same.
Missing you always, I cry,
I just can't say good-bye.
I love you Johnny.
Forever and Always ,

There are no words to express how sorry we are for the loss of Johnny. He was a beautiful soul with a heart of gold. Sometimes life just does not make sense. We love you and are here for you. May the love and support of friends and family carry you through this awful time.

My ace duece,
People search their entire lives and never experience the type of love and bond we share. I am so incredibly blessed to have spent the last 13 years through the good times and the bad with my best friend, my person, the love of my life. I am not sure how to live this life without you in it. Thank you for everything you did for me, for always lifting me up when I was down, for acting so silly just to make me smile, for making me safe, for all the little things. Thank you for loving me the way you did and most of all thank you for just being you. I miss and love you more than I could ever begin to express and always will.
