Mama Ginger,  
So many of us have been blessed by your open heart, your love, and your generosity through the years.  You have been a light in my life for so many years.  I only wish I were closer so I could help be a light for you now as you struggle with your loss.  John will be miss by so many and in so many way.  He had a good life and lived as he chose to.  We can take some comfort in knowing that his struggles are done his soul can rest and his spirit will always be held tightly within your loving heart.

Love you mama

I'm still to this day devastated that the fact your gone and I wasn't even here to say good bye from being on the road. But one day I will be with you again and we will be able to wrestle around like we always have. You will be forever missed. Love you bubba

Miss you daddy so much  I wish  you was here so I can hug you and call me brat and I'm go to miss win it christmas  time because I would  get  a phone call say hey brat  what do you what for christmas this year

Love and prayers to Ginger, Mike and families. It's so hard to lose the ones we love. I remember John from a young boy. He was always caring and friendly. As a believer to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. That comfort sustains us until we meet again.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.

I'm so sad that God took you so soon. But he has an angel; a higher calling for you. You will be missed. Sending love and prayers to all who loved and knew you.

So sorry for the loss of such a young man.  I do not know what it is like to lose a son, but since I lost my husband just 3 months ago, I certainly understand the loss of someone loved beyond comparison.  It is beyond explanation.  The only ones who can truly empathize are those who experience it.

You was a good friend and a good dad. You will be missed by many. Wish I could have been there more. We been through so much over the years, see you on the other side.

I wish I had had more time. I didn't know you very well, but the memories I do have, I will cherish forever. You were, are, and will always be a beautiful spirit. I love you, Uncle John.❤

So sorry to hear about John Lee.  He was a quiet gentle soul and always willing to lend a hand.  Very courteous and will be missed.....Felicia Williams (Dusty Brannon's mother)

you well forever be missed you was a good friend u will always be in our hearts

John Salisbury. You were one of the best men I've ever known .
Decent, honest and helpful.
That describes you. I know you're in Heaven. You will be greatly missed.

"What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch. We may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that you life gave us memories too beautiful to forget" You will be dearly missed forever and never forgotten!!

I am honored and blessed to have known John. He was truly a blessing in my life and I will miss him. My condolences.

Prayers and fond memories are what I have to remember our dearly departed. May the love of family and friends comfort you during these difficult days, my most heartfelt condolences.

Today is full of memories of my brother being laid to rest and every single one of them brings me happiness.
For you were someone special always a pleasure to know and there will be so much pain when it's time to let you go.
That's why this special message is sent to the heavens above for the Angels to take care of you and send my everlasting love. You will be missed John. I know you're in good company. Granny give him a big hug for me. Love you.

What can be said when one of ours is gone too soon. Ginger has been my best friend for more than 40 years and we have shared everything together especially our children. Her loss is my loss. My heart is with you now and forever. Love

John the gentle giant, he will be missed. My heart and prayers go out to his family.

Our deepest condolences for the family . I pray you lean on the Lord for his love and guidance throughout these tough times

John,

We have been friends for so long it's hard to believe your gone.  You'very been my best friend for all this time and now your chilling with Tim and your dad at the party that never ends. You were like a brother to me and you called me family.  Your family will always be a part of mine and I will always be there for them if they need me.  I will never forget all of the fun we had over the years and I will always keep your memory alive.   Until I see you again.

John you will always be my very first love and high school sweetheart. love and will miss you dearly. R.I.P. my friend.

I was shocked and saddened to here of John's passing last Wednesday. It's hard to sum up a life in a stack of photos that goes without saying, but I could tell as I was looking at them John had a good life and people loved him and that's all that any of us can hope for. I met John when he was nine years old. He was the son of my wife's best friend. John was soft spoken and kind like his mother and grandmother and was a blessing to all that knew him. Our thoughts are with you at this time.

Undertaker my adopted brother my best friends with out u I would not be who I am today u did for me what some couldn't I love u always and forever

John was one of my best friends. I was the baby of the bunch but I could always hang with the big boys. John was just here at my house the day before he passed away cause he wanted to see me and the kids. I'm glad we got to see him before he left this world. John we love you and miss you

I miss you and love you  I so wish  I can call you and hear you voice  again I miss you hugs and you call me brat RIP daddy love your  brat

Gonna miss you so much! Even after our group was torn apart after losing Jeff and Tim. We somehow always stayed in touch, I remember you coming down to my job at circle k and always giving me your famous bear hug lifting me off the floor! Plus that smile that melted anyone's heart. Thank you for some amazing memories, we surely had some great adventures didn't we! You will forever be in my heart! I love you always and forever until we meet again! Boy that's gonna be some kinda party...R.I.P only the good die young!

John was one of the best people I know. He was always there for me he took care of me like I was his little sister. I  just want one more day.He will be missed and loved and remembered we love him unconditionally.

I will always love you and miss you bubba. You were taking from us way to soon but until we meet again I'll be missing you.

Srry to see you go.we did a lot of crazy stuff growing up.gonna miss ya

Wow buddy I am going to miss you and the fun we had running around with friends and family members sleep over but what I am going to miss is your voice p.s sleep tight and good night you was a good friend till the end see you soon Ben Heard

I am so sorry you had to leave so early. You were such a good son and I know your mom, Mike, your daughter and all your family and friends will miss you.

There is so much I can say after almost 20 years.  John was my best friend and the one I went to when I needed someone to talk to. You saw one you saw the other it looked like a couple of towers walking toward you if you saw us together.  John I am going to miss you so much we were brothers blood or not we were family and I will always call your family my own.  The sadest part for me is that you will never get to meet my son who will be born later this year but a part of you will be carried on with him. I am your brother ALWAYS.

I miss you daddy and I love you can't believe you gonna  from my life I wish I can tell you I love you for the last  time hope you have fun up there in heaven  with papa Salisbury and granny Salisbury RIP daddy  love you Brat
