Debbie, Nicolas, & Johnny;
I am so grateful to have had John in my life for so many years, and I'll remember him with fondness forever. All of us, especially you, have truly suffered a tremendous heartbreak.
John understood better than anyone I've ever known the value of a human being - and he NEVER forgot to let them know how much he appreciated them. Thus, people will never forget John. He will be remembered as a fiercely loyal, sincere, honest, generous, thoughtful, compassionate, sensitive, proud, and ever-so-human man who yes, sometimes displayed these characteristics to a fault.
I cannot imagine your sadness and grief, and for what it's worth, I am praying that the love that John so generously gave out will come back to you and help you to heal.

DEBBIE ...this time in your life is very difficult I'm sure. I just wanted to remind you that Jesus said in mathew 28....I am with you always....even until the end of the age. In the book of Romans he reminds us that not even death itself can seperate us from the love of GOD!!! we will keep you on our prayer list.....jay

John was a very generous and understanding man.I would like to thank him for all the unselfish things he had done for myself as well as the other guys at IAQ. I will try to let the dream of IAQ live on! I couldn't have had a better man to work for. Thank you John for all the "pep-talks..." that you have given me, I will take them to heart more now than ever! Miss You!

Aunt Debbie& Nicholas,
There are no words to express how deeply saddened I am for your loss. I know how much you love John,your face would light up speaking his name.I could tell he was a wonderful man.The world has lost a great person.
There are few people in this world who can truly appreciate the great strength and endurance that you have displayed. Through challenges you still seem to hold your head up and keep on going. You remain strong for everyone else. As I have told you before you are a perfect depiction of a Proverbs 31 Woman. I admire you. Nicholas you take care of your momma, she needs you.....
John Jr.
I am saddened to hear the loss of your dad I hear he was very dear to you.You have a wonderful step mom and step brother who loved and appreciated your dad probably more than anyone will ever know. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
