Judy and family,
I'm so sorry to see John has passed. So thankful I stopped by a few summers ago to see your sweet family. He was always smiling and had a good story to tell.
I'll never forget the time I cut off all the wires to Scotts green 5 speed (?) bike. John came to my door and (thank God my dad wasn't home) asked why I cut them off. I told him they were ugly. John asked me to leave the rest of his bike alone and I sheepishly agreed. After all John was a tall respected man of the neighborhood and everyone loved and listened to him. I didn't come around for probably one full summer before I saw him again, hoping he forgot the evil incident, and he still had a smile for me.
Heaven is winning with John's occupancy.

Dyson Family,
John was a great man he touched many lives. A larger than life man with a big heart. I rembemebr him always laughing. And always willing to give.
May my condolences bring you comfort and may my prayers ease the pain of this loss.

Judy and family,
We spent many wonderful years at the lake with you and John and your family and have so many great memories. And we're thankful we've been able to keep up this friendship over the last few years.
I can only imagine how hard it must be for you all but know that John is in a better place.
Wish we could be with you but know our love and hugs are with you all.

I had the pleasure of knowing and working with John at NSP. He was always a gentleman, loved people, life and his family plus the outdoors. My sincere condolences to the family. John may be gone physically but will remain within so many hearts forever. Cherish the many special moments you shared with John.
