John was a geat guy. We'll miss him among the ushers at Mass on Sunday... and miss exchanging stories with him about our sons in Troop 230 and the enjoyable times we all had together. We're certain that his reward in Heaven is great.

My family first met Mr. John about ten years ago when he used to ride his bike around our neighborhood. Since then he, his family, and my family have become rather close. I was happy to run into him while home for Mardi Gras. I have many memories of Mr. John and wish to live as full of a life as he did! My condolences to his family during this time.

I'm so glad that I got to spend some time with you last week, Mr. Joseph. I'm really going to miss you and all those little talks on your front porch. I know that you are where you wanted to be now, reunited with your lovely wife up in Heaven. I'll try to keep Jackie in line and behaving herself as best as I can. Until we meet again, I'll truly miss you.
