I  met John  when we worked together on a coupeof projects at our agency, but was until we became tour guides in Annapois that I really got to know him. He was a friendly chap with a great sense of humor an was an intlligent individual wih many varies intersts. I am proud to have  him as a true friend and we will miss him at the  meetings of the Tuesday Club and enjoying a cup of coffees well as the friendly disscussions about anything and everything.  John, you are missed.

John and I became close buddies from the day I met him in Mrs. Nichols' 3rd grade class, when my family moved to Pauma Valley.  What a wonderful, thoughtful person!  We played sports together, enjoyed Mr. McNeal together in junior high, camped together, were in FUHS student government together.  He an his family included me in a trip to visit Redlands College as we thought about our educational future.  I still treasure the gold cuff links he gave me as a graduation gift...I was too crass to even think about giving a gift to my close friends at the time, but he was always way ahead of me in being a caring human being.  He has often been in my thoughts throughout my life, but to my great regret, it has been decades since we got together.  I miss him.

I was reaching out John today to catch up, and his email bounced back. Googled him to see if I could find current information and saw this.  I worked for John for maybe a month between grad school and my current job, and it was such a pleasure to work with such an enthusiastic, dedicated geologist. Very sad to see this. Wish I had known he was dealing with so much when  I saw him last. He was just always so happy! Thank you John for being such a good mentor for that brief moment I worked with you.

Mary,
Just heard about John's passing
He was a great friend and he will be missed, they don't make them like him anymore
We still laugh about the night Tom Miles and myself introduced him to Jimmy Vaughn in Eddie V's in Austin, John Loved it

I was shocked to hear of John's passing.  He was such a nice man.  I knew him from his mother's church in Pauma Valley.  He was always a joy to talk to when he visited.  He always had a smile on his face and showed interest in whatever you had to say.  I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Through a Texas cousin I just learned of John's death.  I worked with John at Guardian Oil Company, a way station between Exxon and Hankey Oil.  John was an excellent geologist and always put together great presentations.  But his wonderful and infectious enthusiasm and enjoyment of life were what I really remember.  My deepest condolences to Mary and his children.

I am very saddened to learn that John has passed away. My condolences go to all his family and friends, at the loss of such a vibrant, multi-faceted person. He was a unique person and will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him.

We are so sorry for the loss of John. In the little time we spent with him we enjoyed his humor and joy of life. We're sure he will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

He invited me to SIPES and shared what he knew with young staff.  A great example of how to be a geologist and mentor.  We shared a like of hats.

It was a great shock to hear of John's illness and passing. I am very sorry Mary. My prayers go out to you and your family.

Loved John's enthusiasm!  It was contagious.  But most of all his care as well as dedication to Joann and Ebby Holden while they were living will always remain  in my memory,always!

May peace be with John and his family now.

John was a fun and caring man.  We are so sorry for him to have passed so young.  Cathie and Bob Baldwin

I was shocked and saddened to hear of John's passing.  My most heart felt condolences go out to all his family and friends.  I met John thru one of his many business ventures.  He was a good man, full of integrity, honor, and honesty.  He was open and always willing to listen.  We have all lost a great person and friend.  May God continue to Bless John and his Family.

It is with such sadness that I send our heartfelt condolences to John's family. My friendship with him started in high school and was not broken by our university rivalry (I went to Cal) -- it was with laughter we remembered it at Fallbrook Class of '69 reunions. My husband Pete Yzerman knew him and his family from the golden Pauma days. The circle of those touched by John is large and we will all miss him.

He was a very good friend.  I'm sorry he is gone too soon.

Marcie Sheard, Fallbrook

I'm so sorry for your loss. The death of a loved one can truly be a devastating time. Whenever I experience trying times like this, I think of Phillipians4:6,7 where it encourages us to turn to God in prayer and he will give us "the peace of God that surpasses all understanding." I hope this can bring you some measure of comfort.

I extend my most heartfelt sorrow and condolences for the passing of such a wonderful man. He will be missed by many.

We are so sorry to hear about John's death.  What a tremendous loss to our world. Many many sincere condolences to Mary, Evans, Chip and Hillary and to John's entire extended family.  - Ann & Jay Allison

Mary and her 3 excellent children are in our prayers.

Blessings and loving thoughts to John's family. He was a fun loving dear cousin.

Our thoughts and prayers to Mary and her wonderful family on the loss of John.  He was very special and we are thankful to have met him so long ago.  With love and healing hugs, Felicia, Kristen and Heather Bures.

It was a privilege know this wonderful man, sadly taken from us long before his due time.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

So sorry for your loss. May your family be sustained with  the love of Christ. Bless you all.
  Diane and Richard Kadlick
