I have fond memories of John at family gatherings when we were young cousins playing at my house and other relatives' houses, but I especially cherish those fun memories at our grandparents' house at Easter and Christmas. Those memories of John from the 50's and 60's sharing family time together will forever warm my heart. Praying for his family as they grieve his loss.
