John was one of my favorite humans. I worked for John for 4 years and for the last 10 years has consistently checked in on me, loved my family and has shared his family, knowledge, time and his dogs with me. John wasn´t only a pillar of the community, but he was my mentor and friend. He taught me about agriculture, quiet generosity, and work ethic. In 2012, I was really struggling financially. I was a single mom, with a job that I loved but I was barely making ends meet. A few weeks before Christmas John stopped by the office and handed me a gift. He said "just a little bacon for Christmas" I opened it and sure enough there was bacon, and $100. That $100 gave my kids a Christmas that they otherwise wouldn´t have had. I cried. I won´t ever be able to repay him for the impact that Christmas had in my life, or the many other lessons he taught me, like where to get the best steak literally anywhere (seriously John had a food recommendation for everywhere in the country it seemed). Thank you John for the countless lunches, talks of triumphs and failures, and for the example you set for my family and I. Thank you "Mr McNabb" for everything

We are so sorry for this great loss for your family. John is a great man and friend. In the early days of our marriage he must have guessed or knew we were living on a very tight tight budget with our little ones. He would randomly arrive EARLY in the morning with bacon or potatoes and his cheery greeting. We appreciated his kindness and have always loved his sense of humor and that mischievous sparkle in his eye. We were blessed to know him and count his as our friend.

A man who has blessed many by just knowing him. His smile, his intense handshake (grin) and his humility. I will surely miss him. Thank you John for being in my life at the perfect time. You have done well.

So sorry for the passing of John. John would come clear across a room to speak to me and usually to talk about notill farming. He was always a gentleman. RIP
