John was a kind, sweet man I always respected. Knowing John for soo many years, there was no doubt he treasured his family and friends and we treasured him. Thank you John for touching my life with many smiles and a great friend.

I've considered John(and family)close friends for nearly twenty years,if I didn't see him for six months, we could always pick up where we left off. I have so many fond memories of him that I don't know where to start. The irony of his passing is that we sometimes laughed so hard we couldn't breathe.Nobody could tell a story like John, and nobody was the subject of so many great stories(remember when he convinced that lady that he was twins-he ran from one side of the building to the other-it was priceless)John, you'll be sorely missed but fondly remembered you were one of a kind.

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
