"John was an incredible husband, father, papaw, brother, friend, and human being. He was the type of guy who would give you the shirt off his back without hesitation. Anytime you wanted to talk politics, John was your man. He loved his family/friends and his grandchildren were the apple of his eye, supportive of everything they did and was always there to cheer them on. To me, he was the best father-in-law anyone could ask for. John had my back and was there any time I needed something. Rest in piece John, you were loved by us all and will surely be missed."
