More personal, on behalf of my daughter and I, John and Lynn (I) were the loves of each other's life, together as close friends for over 30 years, we were finally married October 31st, 2021. There was nothing John would not do for me and Allison. He was very proud the day Allison and Hunter were married, very proud of Hunter for his continued military service and very proud the day Allison was sworn in as a Deputy Sherriff. He was extremely excited for the upcoming birth of his Grandson Baby Brown.
