To John’s Family.
I knew John for only a little while when we were TOPS members together. I remember his sense of humor and great smile. He will be missed.
RIP, Johnny. I remember talking to you at a family reunion, with our gazillion cousins milling around. Asking each other which one are you?
Far too soon to go.
When Shari and I were 12 or 13, Johnny “snuck” us into a scary movie with him and sat behind us scaring us the whole time. I remember him laughing, all the time. Peace to your family, Shari.
My heart breaks knowing such a wonderful person has left us. Johnny was one of my favorite cousins (you too Shari!) – so fun to be with and always made me laugh. I send you Shari, and you Jim, extra big hugs. I am sorry we have to say good-bye to Johnny so soon. Love to you all. Brenda
