I am at a loss for words. This Earth is one smile shorter today. To say John was one of a kind doesn’t even come close to what this man put into this world. I have spent endless hours with John and Karen through the years. When I went through one of the darkest times in my life, it was John and Karen who helped me navigate the pain. John always with a kind word and so much encouragement. I could fill a book with all of the memories I have with John and Karen, Daya and Marlene. Please know that even though we are far away, you are always in our thoughts and we miss you more than you will ever know. We love you Karen, Daya and Marlene.
