I'm just now finding out about my dear friend John. This puts a knot in my stomach & makes me sad to hear this news. I've know him since I was 6 years old. Him & my Mother where neighbors where they lived across from me until I moved out. My mom stayed but I would always come back in the neighborhood & to check on him. Me, my wife & Daughter actually stopped by his house to say hello 3 weeks ago just to say Hi. We rang the Door Bell, but no one answered. That's when I received the heartbreaking news from my mother Arlene Geisendorff that very same day. She has been living in the neighborhood almost as long as him. He was a Great Man.

My fiancé Alex and I parked next to John at all the Jaguars games last year and will never forget the time we assisted him in putting up his huge flag pole. From the first time we met him we felt a special connection to him and knew he was a good person. We were looking forward to seeing him at the home opener only to be heartbroken to hear of his sudden passing. He will be truly missed. Our condolences go out to all his family and friends

My heart is broken.  I truly loved John and thought about his infectious smile, laugh, and love of life whenever I needed a lift.  Jack, Mary, Tom, and Jim, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

To John:  "What you are is God's gift to you.  What you become is your gift to Him".  You were a wonderful gift to us all.  Thank you for the love and precious memories you have given me.  God bless you.

John was a great friend that I have known for 25 years. He was a compassionate, decent and well loved person. He had that great smile and positive attitude. I will miss you Buddy.

Our heartfelt condolences to you and your family during this difficult time of bereavement.  We pray that God gives you peace and strength to sustain you for what the future holds.  Know that you are in our prayers.

My condolences to the Cusick family, John was a friend and neighbor
and will be missed for his joy of life and professional skills,he left us too
soon.

John was such a fun and kind person. Super laid back and always smiling. I was one of the bartenders at TK in Jacksonville that served him on a biweekly basis. We loved John! Every Sunday afternoon I always expected to see John and his dear friend Sully come to the bar for a few drinks. Johns drink of choice was always a bud light draft. We will miss him deeply!

John was a true friend and the perfect neighborhood ambassador.  A very kind and generous soul.  He was always ready to help with a project, lend a tool or share a beer.  He will always be remembered by his great smile and friendly wave from the yard.  We will miss you my friend!

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family & friends. John will be sorely missed!!!

John has been a dear friend and neighbor since he moved into his home. He always kept a watchful eye out for all of us. I never saw John when he didn't have a huge smile on his face. I loved seeing him walking his girls and riding his bicycle. He never failed to wave or say, Hi.  My heart is so saddened knowing I won't see him at Mass on Saturday evenings with his Dad. God bless your loving family, friends and dogs as they struggle to live without you. May your soul and all of the souls of the faithfully departed rest in peace.

I'm deeply saddened for your loss.  I cut John's hair and I will miss him and his great big smile and always happy and positive attitude. I will keep his family in my prayers.

Our condolence's to the Cusick family from the Gyorog family. We will miss him. Great pictures Bob.

I had to leave work when I got the news. John was one of my best friends, all the way back to UF. We would punt the football to each other on Jacksonville Beach for hours in the summer. I will miss coming by his house when I'm on business trips in Jacksonville. I was so looking forward to introducing my daughter Kathryn to John. He sent her a very generous HS graduation gift. God bless you John. You're the best!

Thoughts and prayers to family, friends and loved ones. It's so nice to see everyone enjoyed his contagious smile. I worked for John's dentist and we always enjoyed seeing John. He was a ray of sunshine, a good man.

We were so sad to hear about John.  He was such a fun loving and caring person.  He will be missed greatly!

So sorry to hear of John's passing. A high school classmate, he was always smiling and friendly. May memories of him comfort you in your grief at this time of loss.

I will miss you,John. 
 You always looked life squarely in the eye. Loyal to your friends and your time spent with them. Always light hearted, with a story ready to be told and a laugh ready to be shared. 
  I was lucky to share some of it with you...

I will miss seeing John working in his yard, riding his bike in the neighborhood and walking his dogs.  He was always so pleasant.  May God bless you and give you comfort and peace.

John was a very good neighbor and friend who always meticulously maintained his home and property.  He had an excellent sense of time management and future planning with his work and other projects that he set out to complete on schedule. 

Whether I was leaving or returning to my home, John would always wave with a smile as I passed by his house.  It was always a joy having conversations with John on various topics when we both had some free time to do so.

If you ever needed air in your tires, or were having mechanical problems with your vehicle, John was always happy to oblige.  With his background in mechanical engineering, John was the man who would do his best to get your vehicle running again.
 
My last image of John is seeing him walking his two mixed black labs back to his house as he always did during the mornings and afternoons.  John will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

Jack and family - Peggy and I are so devastated by what has happened.  Peace be with you - and we will miss your son at the 8:30 Mass on Sundays.  May he rest in peace, and please be comforted by the outpouring of love.

I will miss you John. I will still celebrate your birthday with mine. It was always a comfort to know you were around the corner. I lost a wonderful brother that had a contagious laugh and celebrated life everyday.

Our hearts are with the Cusick Family during this difficult time. 
There are some who bring a light so great to the world that even after they have gone the light remains. 
This was John.

One of my favorite memories of John was when he got his first car, a little red MGB.  He loved that car and one day I went over to his house and on the floor of his garage, laid out in a million pieces were the engine parts to his car.  I said "how are you going to put this all back together".  He said "easy" and he did!  I guess that is why he became such a successful mechanical engineer. He was a wonderful person and he will be missed.  My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends during this very difficult time.

I only knew John for a short while but he was a really fun guy. I enjoyed going over and watching jags games with him. I am sending my prayers for the family in this tough time.

John was such a wonderful man I saw him walking his girls every day always had a smile on his face always made an effort to say hello we will miss him God Bless your family in this time of sadness

John was the rock of our street, you always knew everything was alright by his smiling face on the corner, I spent time with john over the last 20 years as a neighbor and friend and will truly miss him dearly. My heart is heavy knowing he won't be there anymore but am grateful for the chance to spend time with him. We both attended San Jose Catholic and would joke with each other about which mass to attend.
My prayers go out to John and his family, his father that he spoke of so often.
John was genuinely one of the good guys and I miss him daily.

John was my neighbor and I've know him since I was 13, I've never met someone so kind, gentle and caring. He will be missed very much. My thought and prayers are with his family.

John, 

I watched you be the most honest loyal loving person to all.  Your light will always  carry me in the dark.  Thank you for letting me love you.

My deepest condolences family and friends he was an angel who brightened everyone's star. 

One fine day...but not just yet.  xo

Jack,

Kate and I are so very sorry for your loss. May God comfort you and your family during this difficult time.

John, I will miss you very much you were such a good friend. Every time I drive by your house I will think of you working on your yard or walking your dogs and your friendly wave.

My memory of John will always be his smile.  It was contagious and genuine.  He loved life and people.  But I think most of all his dogs.  They will miss him and look for him.  But his friends will always be there for comfort.  

To the family - words cannot express the sorrow I feel for you.  I will keep you in my prayers.

No words can give the comfort needed to your family and my friend Pamela.  I have prayed every day that God helps you through this difficult time.  John had so many friends, and true friends.  A short life, but one that touched many.  God Bless.
