I grew up across the street from John and Daphne and was close with his cousin Tina. I was very saddened to hear this news..he was a very sweet little boy. I hadn't seen him since he was a teenager though and just found out this news today. Tina, my heart goes out to all of you. May God Bless you all, my prayers are with you....Hilary

John had that special ability to see and love people for who they are. I can only hope to be as kind and generous of spirit as John was. Peace, my friend.
