It hasn't gotten any easier... the days just go by and I find myself wondering why and how - it was so fast. Everything is just so different... it feels weird and uncomfortable. I really wish I could call you. What I'd give to stay for just one more song... I miss you, dad.
Fly high on the mountain and rest easy! You have alway brought so much love and joy to those around you. I will cherish all of the great memories with you. I know your dancing to Mustang Sally up there! Until we meet again.
We are so very saddened to hear of John’s sudden illness and passing. It is said that we each have our own impression of each person we meet in life.
To us, John was unfailingly happy and positive, a man who clearly enjoyed life. He loved, above all, his wife and family.
He took great pride in his beautiful home and was a frequent host to his many friends, usually the guys, in his air conditioned garage, with the popcorn machine and a stocked fridge.
He was honest and fair, and as a result he grew a successful business, and was a pleasure to deal with.
Weekends would find John out fishing on his boat, riding his motorcycle, hanging with the guys in the neighborhood or maybe cutting his hair with the flowbee.
He always offered a smile and a good word. He was a gentle soul. It’s hard to fathom that he will no longer walk the earth. He will be missed by so many.
We can only imagine the depth of your grief and the pain in your heart. To have known John is a great honor. Our thoughts are with you. Our memories of John will forever be in our hearts.
