I have felt so sad since I learned of John's death yesterday.  I have thought of him often over the years and wondered how he was doing.  We had a lot of good times together and he was an important part of my life during a serious illness.  I still miss him and I liked to think he was out there eating wings and drinking his beer.  I wish I knew what happened to him.  He was a very wonderful man.  Teresa, if you read this I wish you would contact me and let me know why he died at such a young age.  Thank you.

I dated John for about a year when he joined Marietta Singles.  He was a wonderful person and we shared a lot of happy times together.  I was sorry that the relationship did not last, but I was very happy when he met his wife Teresa and I hope they were very happy together.  I wish I had known of his death at the time so that I could have come by and paid my respects.  God Bless You Teresa.  

I just found out today of John's passing.  I am an old friend from High School and remember John as a musician and always happy individual with a kind heart.  He will be greatly missed.

John Wagner was a student of the Bible, soldier of christ, and the best neighbor anyone could ever have. He walked the walk as a Christain. He would help anyone he could-always with a big smile,cheery outlook and optimistic disposition.  I will miss his usual response to "How's it going John? " He'd say "Blessed and sanctified!  How 'bout you?"  He played wonderful music that our family always loved- at any time of day. I know that he's playing in Heaven right now.  Our loss is Heaven's gain. God Bless you John- our whole family misses and LOVES YOU!

I was fortunate enough to meet John as he was a colleague and a friend of my late husband Dr. Michael Levinson. I remember socializing with him and meeting his kind wife at Dr. Joel's house at a family and friend function. John was very open and very easy to speak with about religion, politics, health, and life....what a tragic loss to our chiropractic community and to the Christian community. Well done, good and faithful servant, the kingdom of heaven is yours....respectfully, geri levinson and family

John and I shared that special bond that cannot be broken by departure - the bond of a lost person with the guide who loved him into the light. Our friendship did not come to an end, it has just been put on hold for a while. I know when it comes my time to pass over, John will be one of my enthudiastic greeters. Then it will be his turn to show me around. This has encouraged me to get in touch with old dear friends with whom I have not been in close contact for some time. The opportunity can be lost so quickly and unexpectedly.At this point in my life time seems to pass quickly, so I know we will be sharing an embrace before I know it.His candle has not been put out, it is just burning brightly in another time and place.

Gary Robinette, Cartersville

We are so sorry for your loss and please know our thoughts and prayers are with you.  If you need anything, we are only a door shout away and we will be there.  Always in His Name,

Michele and Kayla Brower (neighbors next door)
