I KNEW JOHN FOR MANY YEARS HE WAS A INTERESTING MAN WITH MANY DEAMONS. PRAYERS TO HIS FAMILY
I choose to remember the many laughs that we shared. My prayers are with his family he left behind. I wish everyone battling depression and addiction knew how much they were loved and that God’s Grace can reach them no matter how far away they feel.
I remember the many hours of conversation John and I had about recovery and life. We shared a lot of laughter and tears. My prayer is that everyone battling addiction will surrender to the amazing Grace of God that will heal wounds once thought to be beyond repair. May God Bless John and the loved ones he left behind.
