John I looked up to like my own brother you were kind and caring and loving . You used to drive debs and I and our friends to roller skating together. I loved your smile and your words were always so sweet and caring . You always thought of others until the day you died .. You will be greatly missed. May you rest in peace pain free . Until we meet again in heaven
I'm really really missing my brother, Never imagined you would leave so soon. I love you so very much. I'm remembering all the times you would prank me with your silly jokes. I remember mom had a garage sale and mom wanted us to go get her McDonald's and Cameron a happy meal and at the time McDonald's had Michael Jordan card in the happy meal and you put it in mom's garage sale and wrote for sale for 1 million dollars. You made me laugh all the time. Anyone around you you would make laugh with one of your jokes. I'll always remember how much my kids loved you and at my kids birthday parties you would always play with them know matter where I would have it. You were the best uncle to my kids. I will always be grateful for you and the memories I have. I am going to miss getting coffee and donuts with you and just hanging out. I always remember how lucky you were just walking around a casino and finding stuff. Only you had that luck. I love you brother. I hope you can finally have peace. I will forever miss you
Rest in peace Uncle John.. I will miss your joyful sense of humor and your overwhelming kindness.. I will miss our bit we had where we would just continuously say hello to each other back and forth on the phone for no apparent reason… I love you and will miss you eternally. Love, Cameron

I remember all the fun times we had and taking debs and I to the new kids on the block concert! You will be missed RIP god didn’t need to give you wings because you already had them!!
John, I'm going to miss your quiet voice with your corny funny jokes. I wish that you were not taken from us so soon. You were a blessing to mom and a wonderful son. You were an amazing father to Joseph and accepted Austin as your son from the time we first met. Even though we didn't stay together, I loved you for being a compassionate and kind person who tried not to give up on people. You are now an angel in heaven like you were on earth. We will all deeply miss you. Debora and I wish that you could have lived longer because you had a very good heart and soul. Fly with the other angels and be free from the pain. I love you and thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving us an amazing,generous, caring son who also takes after you, for caring about others. Love Eileen.
I LOVE U SOOO MUCH

My loving older brother, I love you so much. My heart is broken 💔 if only I could change things. 💔 I will always remember how much you loved your family. Your son Joseph. I know how much you were proud of your son and how much you loved him. When Joseph would visit you in Las Vegas. John would be so excited and have the biggest smile on his face. He loved his son very much. I will always remember my brother as loving and caring. I have so many memories 😪 John loved telling people jokes and making me and everyone around laugh. He loved his coffee and his chocolate cake donuts. John also loved helping me with my dogs and he was good at everything he did. He was a huge help and I will miss him. John also loved taking me to Portland wrestling when I was younger. We had a blast, We would blast the music to Phil Collins. Song was I can feel it in the air tonight. We had a blast. John also took me to my first concert. New Kids On The Block. We always had a blast together. John also loved mom so much. He took care of mom for many years then our sister for the past several years. John had a huge heart. Also put everyone else in front of his own life and happiness. I will always remember John as a loving brother ♥️ I love you John. RiP 🙏
