I worked with John for about 8 years at
Kieffer - Nolde (late 70's early 80's) and John was always funny and courteous and a hard worker.

We enjoyed meeting John while in FRG in the '90s. A nice guy who will surely be missed.

Steve, Sue and family- Our loved ones leave behind spaces in the world that can never be filled. But they also leave behind love and light in each of us, sparks of joy and hope that live in our hearts and give strength to our souls. It was always such a pleasure to see Johnny when he came to visit the Lone Star State.

Love to you and your family,

Steve& Robyn Seide

John was my father in law. He truly was a very loving person, he treated me like his own daughter from day one. He loved his grandkids, and great grandkids, Zoey and Danny. He lived a very long and good life with lots of love at every turn. He will truly be missed. Thanks for the memories Dad
