John was a great guy and was my son in law for many years. He was funny and laughed a lot. He loved his family, 2 daughters, 1 son and 2 grandchildren. He always made them laugh and they loved him very much.
I also loved John and he was a good son in law. RIP John! You are now free of all your burdens and in Jesus's arms! God Bless you!! From Ma
