I have no words for this. I CAN say, that you will be truly missed..... by so many. I thank you for your laughter, your antics, your dedication to your work and family, and for being a true friend. You will forever be in our hearts.... today the world is less one "lil' rooster", and one hell of a great guy. Love you John, your Megster ? ~ peace

There are two types of friends: those you can rely on and are always a part of your life and those that you know for a brief period. John was the former; a dear friend whom I would touch base with from time to time regardless of distance. I recall calling a few times from Korea and hearing the warmth in his heart. John you will be missed more than you know, may you be at peace.

I knew John since 2008 as a work colleague and a friend. Over the many interactions I had with him, I got to know him on a personal level. He was a mentor to me in many ways, and I will miss him very much. I pray that he is at peace now, and will always wish I had just one more conversation with him. I believe he is with God now, and pray for peace and comfort for his family and friends.
