John, my brother in law, was my big brother, who taught me how to drive. Growing up, I always looked up to him as one of the most intelligent people I knew. John was very well loved expecially by his Mother-in-Law, and his Father-in-Law, my parents. My memories of family gatherings were well-enhanced by John's presence and participation. I remember him being nothing but a gentleman, very respectful of my parents. His place in our family will be forever remembered with love. His all too many years spent in illness never could eradicate the memories of many happy and loving times. He was and will continue to be a well loved member of our family. God bless him.
