John was a great friend and I will miss him. John was loyal to the Steelers and Buckeyes but he was even more loyal to his friends. John was a fighter who loved life and refused to give up. In the end God loved John and took him to Himself.

Romans 8: We are more than conquerors... That is what John and I studied one day while he was in the nursing home. I told him that sometimes God gives us trials because He thinks we can handle it and it helps us grow. So glad to see the growth in my uncle as God was softening his heart over the years. My uncle surely wasn't perfect by the time he passed, but he never let that stop him and he let you know it!

My Love and Prayers to Family and Friends. John will be missed by those who lives he touched. He was not just my Brother but a Friend. If only we had a few left like him. He was adopted into our family his senior year of high school and stayed with us even after Graduation. Now he is with the Father God and All His Family.
