Janet & Timmy,
Our condolences to your family. We will miss John and have nothing but fond memories since we have met him. Your father has always been great with Kathy, myself & the kids. Blake has spoke and continually will talk about John and the fond memories he has of him. I think John was a positive and strong influence on T.J. and Blake. T.J. is lucky to have John as a Grandfather, he will always be able to carry those great influences with him. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.
