I was sadden to hear about the death of John he was our sales representative at Midwest for Lifeway Christian. I could always count on John from a quote or for making sure a delivery arrived on time to one of my church's. I also had the pleasure of working with at some of our SBC conventions. He was a wonderful person and he will be dearly missed. I pray God will give you and your family comfort at this time of sorrow.

Dear Kathy and family. I'm Ted's wife from Locascio's Liquors.I wasn't able to make the wake,but as you know Ted was there to pay condolences. I knew John for a couple of years and have met you when you'd get off work from Jewel and come in with him. I loved John's laughter whenever he hit a winner on an instant lottery ticket. That (laughter) he brought will always be a happy memory for me. I knick named him "SCRATCHY" because of the instant games. He will truly be missed...........
