John was such a wonderful person always a great friend and will be missed.  Glenda Jelleson Katrak

My prayers go up for all who loved John as you mourn this great loss.  One of the best memories I have of Uncle John was dancing with him at Aunt Mary's wedding.  He, myself, Uncle Tom and my little sister Amiee had a dance off and I'd like to say Uncle John and I won!  He will certainly be missed by many.

Very sorry to hear of Johns passing.  Had the pleasure of knowing and working with John over the last 20 years and will miss those wide ranging conversations.  I hope to be able to continue those conversations when we meet on the other shore.  Weeping may endure for a night but joy will return one morning.  Peace

John and I met in 1983, and we shared life, love, and laughter through our marriage, our adventures, and raising our wonderful son (and a whole herd of Brittany Spaniels!).  Though we parted ways 22 years later, I will always cherish the memories of the life we shared.  He was truly unique and worldly.  God's peace John, and may peace and comfort surround your family and friends.  Love always, Ann
