Sending prayers and my heartfelt sympathy to the family. As a coworker of over 10 years I had the pleasure to get to know John on a spiritual level and as a dedicated employee. Upon his sickness he came and requested my prayers because he knew we both loved the Lord and we always had eachothers best interest on the job. John you will certainly be missed. You fought a good fight, finished the race, kept the faith and you've earn your crown of righteousness. Rest on my friend until our spirits meet again.
