Please accept my deepest sympathies for the loss of John. I can say that I am so glad to have had the chance to know him. He was always able to make me laugh with his unique sense of humor and some of those memories continue to put a smile on my face. One special moment that I remember fondly of John was when he encouraged my mom to laugh and feel at ease during Matt and Lisa Synek's wedding. My father had just passed away months before and John did everything he could to make my mom feel comfortable at her first wedding celebration following my father's passing. This meant a lot to me. For my mom's long-time and dear friend, Christine, I can say that he was a wonderful husband to her and I know that he made her happy. Finally, how could I not admire John for his avid support of the Chicago White Sox? He had great taste in baseball teams. My prayers are with the Vesely family and I know that they will take comfort in the many wonderful memories that John blessed them with during his life's journey.

Please accept my sympathies for your loss of John. John was a great guy and so funny. He always made me laugh with his unique style of humor. I remember him really putting an effort forth to get my mom laughing soon after my dad passed away. That meant a lot. He was a great husband for Chris and I know that they had many happy years together. I know that she was happy with him. Of course, I cannot fail to mention that he was quite the White Sox fan. Enough said there. May his family, friends and loved ones find peace after his passing and cherish the many fond memories that he leaves behind. -Terry Craven
