Rest in Peace Cousin Jon, sorry that I never had the chance to meet or get to know you. But in another place and time we'll get to meet each other and have long talks about everything.
Cousin, Charles Godsey 

You are forever loved and missed. Know that.

So my friend John- where do I began. Let me start by saying I LOVE YOU. John and I never ended a conversation without saying I love you. The good news today is you are a man who will be missed by many. For those who don't know me- My name is Greg Sollars, I work for Feldmeier Equip and was lucky enough to have had John in my life for a few years. John and I clicked the minute we meet. John and I were alot alike. I knew after spending 10 minutes with John that he was one of the most dedicated hard working young men I had ever run across and there have been hundreds.John had a true desire to be the best he could be at whatever it was he was doing. I found John to have true passion in his efforts, a real concern not found in many a man. John and I grew to become close friends in a short period of time spending hours on the phone at night after work- talking about everything; from how to make the company a perfect place, to women that we were dating and then always ended with deep conversations about our children, being a parent and single fathers. I loved having John as my friend. John died knowing secrets of mine that few on the planet knew. As we ALL now know- John was a fighter and was tuffer that the iron gates of hell. Thank you John; for showing me how a real man fights thru hard hard times. I will take the lessons you showed us all and make them a part of me. Let's all take a little bit of good away from something so wrong by LOVING EACH OTHER A LITTLE HARDER TOMORROW. Love you, John always and forever. Your friend forever, Greg- 315-569-5093-Syracuse NY.

Rest in peace, John. My condolences for the loss of this magnificent human being.

You always chose to wear your happy face.  My thoughts and prayers are with your family and may they now you are now at peace.  God Bless!

I forgot about the time we were at the fundraiser and you hugged me and at that moment I felt a light around you.

knowing you only for a little while, made me see how somebody can be  so brave. You will live on in Michael's movie. we will all see you on the other side. love you

You were such a light in this world and will be missed my many. Sending love to heaven my friend

Jon, you taught me a lot about life in the time that I knew you. How much you wanted to be your grand daughter's soccer coach and all the things you wanted to do. You were one of the strongest people I ever met and I love your forever

My last conversations with Jon were regarding the love he had for his daughter. He was a man who lived to see her smile. Jon will be missed.
