I am so sorry to hear this. John was a constant visitor to my house when he was young - friend of my son. He was a nice kid. I remember him fondly. Very sorry for your loss.

John was such a good hearted person with all the stories from his friends and family. I babysat John when he was just 2yrs old in diapers. Still remember him wanting to be carried around while Jim and Kristina wanted me to do activities with them. He was a hugger and wanted hugs a lot. As family grew older I lost contact for many years and found John as an warming caring wonderful adult. He will be missed. I wish there was more we could’ve done to help him but Cancer is evil. I know his mom greeted him with open arms and love. I will meet up with John again and we will catch up again. Rip John ❤️
