  47. Lorna, Pat, Robbie,& Family,

    John was a dear and special person to all of us. Today the world is a little sadder — because we have lost a truly humble, decent and caring man. And in today’s times that is a great loss. He was a caring, loving, gentle, smiling giant of a spirit , and we will not soon forget him.So many of us felt honored to have had him touch our lives in some small way. I remember many good times spent with John, who could always make me laugh with his dry, quick wit and who could always hold my attention with his stories from ” the old days”. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and all your extended family at this time. Remeber always that John’s spirit lives on in each of you; your smiles, your touches, and your very being.

    Ashley, Carolyn & girls
