John was one of a kind. He was so funny and so giving. He loved his wife Cindy so much. He also loved his grand children and family very much too. He helped so many people who needed it. I grew up with John and I was a witness when John and Cindy got married. They were really in love and had a unique relationship. John you will be missed by so many . Somehow I know you will keep an eye on your Cutie and look out for her. We will all do the same.

O'Malley family, love leaves memories no one can steal. Loosing someone we love hurts. Please take comfort in Psalms 29:11, knowing that in difficult times like this, God gives peace and strength.
