May the God of Tender Mercies (2 Corinthians 1:3,4) comfort family and friends of John. When the last enemy death (1 Corinthians 15:26) strikes grief may be great. God Almighty gives HOPE and PROMISE. All those in the memorial tombs will hear Jesus’ voice and COME OUT (John 5: 28,29). God will wipe OUT every tear from their eyes and Death will be NO MORE. Revelation 21:4. Please accept my sincere condolences.

In this time of grief, may the love and caring of family and friends bring comfort to your hearts.

John & I have been "family" for 36 years. He was a wonderful man who was loved by many. I will always have many fond memories of him and loved his dry sense of humor. He was a wonderful father to our son, Mason, and a loving, kind person who loved the church and his teaching profession. My condolences to his sweet, caring wife, Mariella, and all of his wonderful children; Marjorie, Rebecca, John, Andy, and Mason.

I was blessed to know Mr John. He could always make me laugh! He is the reason I love being a therapist. I have so many good memories with him. I loved how he always wanted to be a gentleman and stand when I was walking out of the front door. I could tell he wanted to walk me out, but knew I’d yell at him for trying something crazy like that. :) I love y’all like my own family. Thank you for making me feel loved and welcome in your home.
