He leaves behind a loving family and friends, to whom he brought joy and happiness.

To Johns family I send a cup of sunshine and comfort on the loss of one good man. Growing up in East Pecos I came to know the family well. Together we learned that we have Heaven's own word for what we believe of Heaven. Juanito is now with our precious Lord. Blessings to you all.
