John made many life-long friends along the way. John was most proud of his sons, grandchildren, and Pixie, but also enjoyed collecting model cars, watching the Denver Nuggets, and sometimes even the Broncos.

When confronted with health problems near the end of his life, John summed it up by saying "It's in God's Hands". John was at peace with his life and himself and will be missed by those who knew him.
