We were so sorry to hear about John. He was so kind and generous, always ready to help his friends and neighbors. Chuck spent time with him years ago, off road on motorcycles and buggies. We go way back as neighbors for the past 35 yrs or so. We always enjoyed seeing him with Nick, working in the meticulously clean and organized garage on their buggies. We will miss him very much. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

The only thing bigger than Big John was his heart. Quick with a smile and a sincere query about you and yours. He was hugely proud of Nick and so happy to see him start his life with his lovely wife. You'll be sorely missed, Big John. more than you'll ever know.

Big John, always with a smile on his face. I'll miss stopping by Rack-it to say Hi! and hear the latest news. The aches and pains are gone now, so just hold that checkered flag and wave us in as we cross that finish line. Rest in Peace, Amigo!
