We are going to miss our neighbor of so many years! He was so kind to us and our dogs and the stray cats that live in our yards. Jack always shared his gardening tips and hunting stories. We are sorry that we weren't aware of his passing and didn't attend his services. We will miss seeing our friend during the first spring thaw when he would be out beginning to break ground for his wonderful garden. Our dog Brandy will miss him calling her name and singing to her.. as she begged him to toss a treat down over the fence. We wish Jack peace and will always remember his wonderful personality and generosity.
Love,
Leja family

With deepest sympathy to John's family. Johnny was a good man and had a heart of gold. I will miss his sunny disposition and his wicked sense of humor. He worked a 12 step program like nobody else could. Johnny, rest in peace, you deserve it!! Until we meet again, Wild Blue Angel

So sad to know John left us so early. I quote from the NBHS yearbook, "To a good buddy and a swell friend. The best of luck to you Bob in the future." I remember John as having a tremendous attitude without being a smart-aleck. You could always count on John when in trouble or in need. He will be missed.

Our sincerest condolences go to the family of John. John was one of our favorite members and always put a smile on our faces when he came to the credit union. He loved telling us stories and they brightened our day. John was truly one of the kindest individuals that we have been blessed to know. We will miss you John! Enjoy your Harley ride in heaven!
