I share in your sorrow. John will be dearly missed. Praying you feel God’s perfect love during this most difficult time. Donna (EPRO)
In loving memory of a soul who embodied warmth and kindness. His compassionate spirit and rich laughter left an indelible mark on all fortunate enough to know him! May his legacy of love continue to brighten our days, reminding us of the beauty found in a heart so genuinely caring.
In his eyes you can see how he was such a jolly-good-fellow! So caring to everyone, and full of kindness and laughter. I will never forget that about him. He was a handsome fella too. I love that picture!
Thank you for being a great father-in-law to my brother and a fine grandpa to my nieces! 💖 You WILL be missed dearly.

Sorry to hear of John’s passing condolences to all the family. John was a classmate of mine at Preston high school class of 1963 he was a very nice and very quiet guy
