You will very much be missed
We know you could no longer stay with us, and that you fought long and hard to be with us.
We know you now watch over us, although we cannot hear your voice or see your smiling face.
We know deep down in our hearts that you have not left us, but that instead, you surround us everyday with the rising of the sun and the falling of the night.
So many broken hearts are left behind, but in our deepest despair, our greatest comfort lies in knowing that you are now at peace with the Angels and God.
So as time passes, our tears will dry, and our hearts will mend, but our love for you will never end.
God Bless You John. You were an inspiration to me.
John was a great friend for over 40 years. He was the reason I moved to Florida and the source of much pleasure, wisdom, compassion, and consistently uplifting conversations.
He will be sorely missed.
My sincerest condolences to Lucille as well as Johnnie, Lynn, and Jean.
It was my honor to have known him!
Love always, Dave
