I first met John in kindergarten at Shephard School. He use to chase me in the school yard and pull my hair. We use to sit next to one and other in class all the way through 4th grade. We then met up again when we were 12 when I started hanging out close to where he lived. We dated for 4 years off and on and I took him to my Senior Prom (picture posted) on someone's memorial. Then years had passed and I then ran into John again in 02/03 he was with his daughters picking up pizza in Turnersville come to find out he lived not to far from me, and his daughter went to school that was located on the same block I livdd on. I am in shock to hear this of his passing and feel for his family he will alwsys be remembered. Prayers said for his family. RIP JOHN You were a beautiful man.

My brother John, John loved his children and was a proud father. We will remember the better times of his life which was filled with hard work, happiness and love for his family. We shared Christmas, Birthday parties, soccer games, football games, barbecues and his son Brandon wedding which are memories we will forever cherish. John called me Grub. It was because he said I was always grubbing food. Jeffrey and Jonathan will miss their Uncle John he was a good uncle to them. Our hearts are heavy with sadness; John was taken from this life to soon We hope John knew he was loved by his family and friends. Our hearts ache for Chris, Brandon, Bailey, Abigail and Hannah and we love them all very much. My brother John Rest in Peace With Love your brother Jeff, sister in-law Trish and Nephews Jeffrey and Jonathan

My dear cousin, you have left our lives too soon but I find comfort in knowing that God has another special Angel to watch over us.I will forever hold dear to my heart the special bond we had even though we were often separated by hundreds of miles. Even during this time of sadness I can still smile reflecting on all the happy times we had as kids when you visited The Rez..........even though you liked to torture me with teasing (particularly my "accent") and bizarre pranks. I will never forget the time, out of the blue, you tried to convince me that you had an artificial leg and let me repeatedly hit your leg with the checker board and various other objects at hand, insisting that I do it harder after each whack. Not sure how long you would have kept it up if I hadn't announced that I was going to the kitchen to get a knife. And the whole time you had that sly little grin on your face, which I both hated and loved. Chris, Brandon, Bailey, Abby, and Hannah - my thoughts and prayers go out to you during this difficult time. He loved you with all his heart. Find comfort in knowing that he will always be with you in spirit. Miss you, Cuz.

Thank you

We always joked that no matter where we went, we seem to run into John. We met John and his family when our oldest was four and he was her t-ball coach. John was always pleasant, kind and helpful. We will miss seeing him! Chris, our hearts go out to you and your girls. Carl and Ramona Adkins

I have many fond memories of John my son-in-law. I remember how he and Chris met, he followed her home...good grief...and he never left...lol How he use to give Kathy Chris's sister wet willies, of course he got the wet for the willie from our dog....and also showed her an easy way to do algebra. John had a strange sense of humor and always made us laugh. How much he loved Brandon,Bailey,Abby and Hannah. I hope everyone remembers all the good times and good things about John. What a good friend, neighbor, family member he always tried to be. John always called me MINO " money is no object " if I had it I spent it...on whatever anyone needed. With Love, Mammy " Johns name for me " Sweet dreams Sammy

To my Friend John, I haven't been able to stop thinking about all the good times we shared. Twenty years of friendship that not only included us but Chris and Gina and all of our kids. Although the friendship began as co-workers it grew into a wonderful family relationship. We not only shared many hours solving computer problems but we saw your wedding (snow, rain, wind and sun all in one April day) the birth of our children and all the events that came with having a family. You and I spent so much time together we knew almost everything about each other. I sure hope I was able to be as good a friend to you as you were to me. Thanks for everything and rest easy my friend. Vince

Chris, our family tree lost another branch and what God takes he also gives; our tree continues to grow with strong branches and roots, Brandon, Bailey, Abby, Hannah and & Frances. It is a most difficult time for you and your family including the question why? Comfort and peace at heart will come in time if you will be open to let the good memories control your thoughts. It will not always be easy to stay strong and that's okay too, just take each day as you feel fits you. My deepest and sincere sympathy to you and the children. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Virginia Cousin Jackie Alley

John has joined our family in heaven too soon --unfortunately. Sorry for your loss wish we had seen him since he spoke at mom's funeral. It was so important to him to speak at "Aunt Willis"funeral. Thoughts and prayers with you and your family.

My heart aches for the family left behind. I know John will be missed so much. I know he meant alot to many people. I loved him as a cousin and enjoyed seeing him over the years as he visited the Rez. Please know you all are in my prayers and thoughts. Daryl

I'm shocked and saddened to hear of John's passing . I'll always remember him as the guy that got me started coaching at HYSC . He would not let me off the phone until i agreed to be his assistant coach , so many years ago . I always enjoyed running into him , at league meetings , many years after i left the club . My thoughts and prayers are with his family . Mike Finacaro

I'm still having a hard time absorbing this whole thing. It doesn't make sense to me. I feel so bad for everyone that was a part of his life. There is a huge void in your lives that can never be replaced.i am so sorry about that. I remember john being a good man, a good friend, and a great dad to his kids. I hope for the day when you will all be at peace with what has happened. I love you all, and know that we are all thinking of you guys.
