John was so much to so many. A true gentleman who would help his family and friends. The love he had for his wife and daughters was obvious, the pride he had for them was genuine. He loved his friends like family. He shared his knowledge and his humor. He played an amazing game of pool and could ride his Harley with the best of them. His favorite time spent on the bike was with his wife on back. He loved college football with a passion. Go Noles!! John lived life to the fullest always with a big smile that showed his blue eyes. His memories will live forever in all that knew him.
