Uncle John you know how much I loved you in real life. You'll always be in our thoughts and prayers. Mike & Nancy Johnson
A letter from your oldest nephew. I remember when we were walking down the hill in Baisley, it was a summer day, and you commented on how I walked. "Why you walk like that?, your arms all stiff and by your side.. move your arms and walk like a man, like you got some soul in you." (LOL) Yes, I still remember that, I think I was about 6 or 7 years old. You put the swag in my steps as an uncle should. I never thought about losing you cuz you defied the odds once or twice, almost losing life, If I recall correctly. This time I guess you were ready and god was too. I know you hate when I go soft, so I'll take it easy and just say cheers to the memories I hold and cherish of you. Say hello to everyone, and give nana a big hug for me. May you rest in peace uncle John and I love you, forever your nephew Kevin ❤️
Love you Uncle John and I'm going to miss you From Brooklyn
