Dear John,
It's been a year since you left us. We continue to miss you and pray for you. We know you are in a better place, and no longer suffering, but we still wish you were here. Love you always. Your big sister, Pat

Dearest John,
It will be a year tomorrow that you are gone to a better place. I miss you and pray for you everyday. I thought I prayed so hard for you while you were here, but I find I pray for you even harder now. I so hope you are at peace and happy at last. Love always, Your big sister, Pat

Almost a year has passed and I still think of you all of the time. Even though you are no longer suffering- and for that I am greatful- I still miss you so much and wish you were here.

I hope you are looking down at all of us now with the sly-ish grin that always comes to mind when I think of you.

I LOVE YOU!
Anne

My Dad was one of his best friends. I can remember when I was little all the times when we went skiing in Gatlinburg. He was a very nice and caring man. God Bless!!

Johnny, you will be sorely missed here. We will always remember you.You meant alot to everone,especially me. I'll think of you every time I'm on "HEDONISM" and will take loving care of her.

Uncle John, when I think of you I think about how your laugh created laughter, your voice provided calm. But most importantly your strength brings us all inspiration. I can not express in words, thoughts, or tears how much we will all miss you. You did what you wanted to do, how you wanted to do it...you lived your life your way! I cant imagine a world without someone like you, but I can only imagine what the heavens have gained with you!! I know you will be a strong guardian of your family, and will keep Aunt JoAnne and Johnny safe. Miss you, Love You, Dale

“Don’t give up. Don’t ever give up.”- Jimmy Valvano. And Uncle John fought to the very end... You will be missed.

Aunty Jo and Johnny,
Sara's and my prayers will be with you.

Uncle John~ You were a fighter until the last second you graced this world with your presence. Your heroic amount of strength and courage humble me every day. You were a man of few words, but you made sure that each of those words counted, and they certainly held special meaning to me. I will miss your devilish laugh and smile, your warm hugs, and your calming presence. You will always be one of my heroes.

Aunt Joann and Johnny, please know that we are all thinking and praying for you and hoping God will give you strength during this difficult time.

Joanne and Johnny, Our thoughts and prayers are with you both.

My deepest sympathy and condolences; my thoughts and prayers go out to Joann, Johnny and the Kata family during this most difficult time

John,

Eventhough I had never met you I know that you touched many lives and helped many souls as a person and as a professional. You are at a better place now and we all miss you!!

May God Almighty give your family the strength to overcome losing you and may He bless your soul. Amen!
