I had the pleasure of working for Mr.Wells at his restaurant in Rogers around 2002/2003. To this day, the life lessons I gleaned from working with him have carried forward into my professional career. Just this week, I shared his FISH book with a respected peer and told the story of working at Catfish Johns and my chats with Mr.Wells each evening at closing. He made a tremendously positive impact on the trajectory of my life, for which I will eternally be grateful. May he Rest In Peace and his legacy live on in his light he shared with others. 

John and I were friends in the 1995 to 2000 time frame. We loved to visit Catfish John's and chat with John.

When Walmart falsely accused me of stealing trade secrets, John recommended Buzz Boyer for my attorney. Sure enough, Buzz forced Walmart to settle to my advantage. I could not thank John enough for his great recommendation.

We are saddened to hear of John's passing. He was a good man.

Dear Vicki and family.  I am keeping all of you in my thoughts and in my prayers during this difficult time of John's passing.  It was a pleasure to have known John for most of my life.  Comfort and peace for each of you! With my love~

Heartfelt condolences to John's family and close friends.  It was our pleasure to get to know him about 7 years ago.  He always had a big smile and a friendly greeting when we had lunch at "Catfish John's".  I know our feeling of loss pales in comparison to yours, but we will miss him for sure.  Best wishes for God's blessings as you make your way through the coming days, weeks and months.  Be assured you will see him again in his new Home.  God bless.   

 Gary and Charlotte Potter, Bentonville, AR.

Our deepest sympathies to Vickie and the family.  It was our honor and joy to have known John and to be called his friends. 
Prayers for peace and comfort.

It broke my heart to hear of John's passing, we were lifelong friends & classmates (BHS '63). John was a true friend, always willing to do anything he could for everyone else. He was a loving husband, father, brother & son & always had that beautiful smile on his face.  When I was fighting my battle with cancer he checked on me regularly offering to bring Mike & I some catfish that he knew would make me feel better. When John found out that Mike's health was terminal he tried to offer me & Mike moral support, that's just the kind of guy he was, looking out for everyone else. Vickie, if there is anything I can do for you or your family just give me a call. Take care & may God bless all of you in the days ahead. HUGS, Deanna Wade Dial

I first met John for business.  He quickly taught me that friendship and family are part of business...a required part.  Catfish John never met a stranger and will be greatly missed by all.

JOHN AND I STARTED 1ST GRADE TOGETHER IN GRAVETTE WITH MISS JONES AS OUR TEACHER.  WE ONLY DISCOVERED THIS IN THE LAST FEW YEARS AND HAVE HAD A LOT OF FUN RECALLING THOSE DAYS.  REST IN PEACE MY FRIEND I WILL MISS YOU

Prayers and thoughts to the family of John. May you find comfort, peace and strength in the days ahead knowing old friends care.  Joe and Carol Featherston  BHS  class  1961 and 1963..

Condolences to all  your family. John was one of my classmates. John  always had a smile and made each person feel special when saw us or when we  came into Catfish John's to eat.  He will be missed . 
 God be with each of you.
