Nancy, Billie, Bart and Kristina - I'm so sorry for your loss.  John was a great man and I'll always have the best and fondest memories of our time together.  He always held a spot in my heart.

Dearest Brother,

A poem for you.

Heaven has called upon you today, leaving so many words left to say. Regrets and wishes are there too.
You gave no one a last farewell, 
Nor ever said goodbye. 
You were gone before we knew it, 
and only God knows why.
A millioin times I will miss you. 
A million times I will cry.
In my heart you hold a place, 
no one else could ever fill.
It broke my heart to lose you, 
but I will always have the memories 
of good times we use to share. 
Their is not a day that goes by 
that I didn't think about my big brother. 
We will meet again someday 
I know in a much better place. 
I thank God He made you my brother, 
while you were here on earth. 
From now until the end of my life 
you will be on my mind, 
every minute, every hour, every day, 
I love you dearly, always have, always will.
 Your Sister,

I will never forget your hardy contagious laughter and I will miss you John,...until we meet again.

Uncle John, You will be missed. I'll always remember the good times growing up around you. Having Christmas at your house and going to float the river in New Braunfels with you and your kids are just a couple of the good memories. You always had a smile and could find the positive in any situation. You will be missed. RIP

John, I'll always have great memories of the thousands of miles we traveled together across the US on our Harleys, will miss you. My prayers are with his family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with John's family. John, I'm sure Keith and Don met you at the gates - and what a reunion it must have been. Until we see you again, we will remember the good times. God Bless

John will be dearly missed by all of us at Ball.  To his family, our thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time.

John, we will remember you forever for the amazing qualities you embodied. Your death has left us with nothing to hold on to. This loss is inexpressible. We bid farewell to you with a heavy heart, lamenting in the void that your death shall leave in all of us. Rest in peace, you will always be remembered and loved. Goodbye for now, my dearest friend.....

To Johns family. Bayou are all in our thoughts and prayers. So sad and John will be missed by many.  Long distance hugs to you all. The Suuret street gang has lost a good one.

John you will dearly be missed the struggles we faced together the fun we had together. You have always been a part of our family. The year we struggled through Keiths illness you were  always there. I love you John and will dearly miss you. seems so unfair. But i guess God had his plans for you. my deepest sympathy to the family. Christina you and your family will be in my prayers

You left us too soon--and I didn't make time to call you last year as I planned.  I will always regret that. You're a good decent man and I've been your friend since 1969. I will remember your love for cars and tinkering with engines.  You and Dowell met at age 12.  A huge circle of friends evolved because of your friendship.  Billie, Bart and Christina, gather your strength from God.  Mary, I know you hurt too.  John, my friend, you will be missed from this world but we will all see you in the next.  Much love.
