Uncle John will be missed by all our family and his friends! I will always remember him and his love for sports – football, basketball and baseball! He could have the TV on with a game and the radio too but know exactly what was going on with both games and other games he wasn’t even watching or listening too! I always admired his love for travel and that he would just plan and trip and go! He visited Colorado, Hawaii, Canada and so many places that I can’t even name them all. He was always quiet in a crowd of people but was great to talk with one and one! May he rest in peace with no more pain but lots of love and happiness around him.
John was such a gentle soul. He will be missed and especially at Thanksgiving. I always looked forward to seeing John and sharing a conversation. We shared the same birth year and month and I always considered him a friend as well as a cousin. I’m sure John is in a better place and will enjoy Thanksgiving with his Mom and Dad.
Uncle John will be greatly missed. Personally, I will miss our conversations about my future in school. He was always incredibly supportive and interested. He is loved by everyone in our family and I am sure that he is in a better place and free of pain. We all love you so much!
