Sorry to know this
Don’t think of him as gone away
his journey’s just begun,
life holds so many facets
this earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.
And think of him as living
in the hearts of those he touched…
for nothing loved is ever lost
and he was loved so much.
John was a kind loving brother who is deeply missed.It hard to get over his sudden passing.John cared alot about his family and community.John loved telling stories of days gone by and his many adventures.
REST IN ETERNAL PEACE JOHN. My cherished childhood friend. those beautiful days are gone now,,but they were so so sweet. When the BOTTOM was alive with people like Mr. Buster… remember Peg street remember Chi Chi and Ronnie and Joanne… what about ole Raymond who lived in the brick apartment building on the corner.
I will always remember our running into each other going up the hill or coming down the hill. Meeting each other in Neils store on King street, Or when we played on the train tracks riding slow moving trains then jumping off.
I still tell people about the time you were a supervisor …I laughed until I almost cried .I still laugh about that now.
Rest In Peace brother.
