Memories & Candles
My deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family at this time of sorrow. He will ALWAYS be in our thoughts and prayers. Our family here at FERGUSON will deeply miss his sense of humor. He always came to the counter with smiles and jokes. No matter who was here or what time of the day it was he ALWAYS had you laughing and brightened up your day. He was a gentle giant and he will TRULY be missed. He is now flying high with the Angels XOXO.

My sincere condolences to all of Johns family. He was a good man with a heart of gold and one heck of a sense of humor. My husband and I will miss him terribly. God Bless.

I am saddened that John left us so soon. I trust that he is at peace with his Dad whom he idolized and missed so much. Prayers for his children that he adored and was so proud of. I'm grateful to have had him in my life. Rest easy my good friend.
