    Deb and Allie,
    I’ve now started this message over like 100 times, and am finding it very hard to put into words how sorry I am for the both of you. He was a good person with a huge heart. From shopping, to Ann Arbor, State Fair, and then BAM-IT! “Big John” has given me wonderful childhood memories that I will never forget. I will forever be thankful for the tears he helped wipe away, and all the smiles he made appear.
    All of you will always have a place in my heart.
    Love always

  11. I knew John because he would come to Manley Manor where I was a nurses aid and later to Arcadia School where I was a teacher with UPS. I always called him “looney John!” You have my sympathies.

    John used to deliver to Petro and I can remember many of times that he and all of us would pick on each other and joke around. He was a wonderful person and will be missed. Prayers to the family and I am so sorry for your loss.
