I couldn't sleep. Some how I decided to Google Johnnie Quan.  I couldn't believe he passed away.  Why I thought of him after all these years.  I really don't know why. I met him when I was 18 years old.  I wish I knew sooner of his passing.  I would have gone to his memorial service.  What I remembered about him was he loved sports.  He played racketball. He was very good at it.  He was a very smart person.  He was kind. I always enjoyed talking to him.  I am glad he had a successful career.  I am happy he got married and have a family. I am glad we cross path once.  I always wonder about him.  Our life is short on earth.  We just don't know when are time come.  If he has faith in the Lord then he would have eternal life in heaven.    It's too bad we never kept in touch.. Good bye John Quan.

Johnnie,

It tears me apart to see you taken away so soon. I will always be grateful for you and how you welcomed me to the family as one of your own. While I wish that we could have had more time together, I am forever appreciative of the time that we had together. You are a blessing to your family and everyone you meet. You did a great job raising your kids, and definitely had a lasting impact in your life. You and your family will continue to stay in my prayers, and I hope to see you again when my time comes.

Johnnie.. How can this be?  I spoke with you just the day before.  Oh how I wish I had spent just a few more minutes with you letting you know that I always enjoyed working with you, appreciated your wise and informed technical inputs and loved talking Texas football with you.  You were frequently more informed than I was.  I'm still stunned that you are gone, but you'll never be forgotten.  God bless your family in this difficult time.  Dale

Johnnie and I work in different departments, but we would chit chat when we see each other in the hallway/ breakroom. He was a kind person and very delightful to talk to. So Sorry to hear your loss. My deepest condolences to you and your family.

Always a gentleman and always kind.  Grateful to the Lord and proud that I am related to him.

Cynthia and Family, 

Life is precious...
Life is fleeting...
Life is scary...
Life is difficult...
Life is unfair...
Life is unpredictable...
Life is beautiful...

May you find solace in the memories of your husband and father and cherish the time you had together.... however short it was...
You are in my thoughts during this difficult time....

So sad to hear about Johnnie’s sudden passing. I’ve known Johnny since the 80’s. He was kind, generous, and caring to everyone. Even though we haven’t been in touch for many years, I remember the great times hanging out together with a group of friends in our early 20’s. He often treated us for dinner at his apartment in my early college years (we went to Johnny’s apartment for dinner when we were too cheap to eat out). One year we hang out throughout the summer playing Centipede video game pass midnight at various arcades.  Those were the best times. It's difficult to say goodbye. Rest in peace Johnnie.

My Dear Sweet Cynthia, 

Words can’t express how sorry I am that you have to endure such a loss! I will continue to pray for you and your family. May the Lord comfort your grieving hearts and bring you all peace!

Cynthia  and family,

I am so very sorry for your loss. You all are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Please know that I am here for you.

What a good person Johnnie was. I miss him .

We live in another country, so I have never met Johnnie, but we talked on the phone often and discussed our work.
before to start the discussion, He was one of the kindest friends I ever knew who always asked about me and my family.
Sometimes he took care of me with his brother and sometimes he talked to me with his friend
We won't be able to work together anymore, but he will always stay in my heart.
Rest in Peace. I will miss you !

I am grateful for the opportunities our team had to collaborate with Johnnie. He was a talented professional and used his wealth of experience to make our shared projects successful. However, even more than his technical skills, I appreciated his optimism and the kind demeanor he brought to all our interactions. No matter how stressful things were in the moment, Johnnie always made the situation seem brighter. He will be greatly missed. My deepest condolences to his family.

Very sad to hear about Johnnie's sudden passing away.
He is such a kind and helpful person to everyone, always beaming with a contagious smile.

 It was a pleasure working with you Johnnie. Thanks for all the many years of knowing you, both personally and professionally, and for sharing all your talents with all of us.

We will miss you Johnnie, but we are comforted knowing that you are in a much better place now with our creator. 

Rest In Peace my friend.

Johnnie was such a good person to work with, responsible, knowledgeable, hardworking, and kind.    
When we worked together on some small customer accounts, he was so helpful in supporting to provide the correct pcb designs in the first place, so that we can always have no pcb design issues during product development stage.  
I still remember, on the last workday before Christmas in 2015, he helped me to complete a design that we promised to customer, and it was already quite late in office.  And I believe, this is just one of the things that we really appreciated, but Johnnie might think it is normal… 
A person with great characters will always be memorized and missed.  Wish Johnnie rest in peace!

Johnnie was a diligent worker, consummate professional, and kind soul. What more could one want in a colleague? His affable presence and technical ability will be missed. Offering thoughts and prayers to the bereaved, God bless.

Johnnie was a great friend and co-worker!! He was full of life and enjoyed talking about his family!!  He will be missed. I am praying for his family during their time of loss.

Johnnie was not only a very skilled and talented engineer, but he was also one of the kindest souls I have ever met. He was always ready, willing, and able to assist me and my team in any way to help ensure the success of our programs. A wealth of knowledge and a wonderful person has departed us - he will be missed!

Johnnie and I were coworkers in the early days of Photo Design. He was a kind man with a great work ethic. We were good friends during those days and I’m sorry to hear of his passing.
RIP Johnnie.

Johnnie will be dearly missed. I could always count on him to have a smile on his face and very kind words to share. It has been a pleasure to work with him for for so many years. He was a wonderful example to all of his co-workers on how to interact with people.   He was always willing to help co-workers and you could tell that he really did enjoy helping others.  My deepest sympathies to his family and many friends.

Johnnie was a kind hearted soul who I got to know over the past years. We often shared stories about our kids and travel which was a blessing to hear. Every time I spoke of my daughter, he was very forthcoming with help and advice on being a respectable parent and role model. He was beaming with positivity and will be sorely missed.

I  have known Johnnie for the past 20 years not only  as a coworker abut also as a close friend . Johnnie was one of the kindest people I’ve ever met, He was always polite , measured and thoughtful. I knew I could always count on Johnnie not only for work related tasks but also with any issue I had in life where I needed second opinion or advice.  He was very wise and had great knowledge on many areas.  I often consulted with him anytime I didn’t have a clear path forward no matter what the issue is.
Johnnie was also a great family man and deeply cared about his family . We often exchanged views on our kids future , our own retirement  and future plans and how to get there.
 I am so deeply saddened by Johnnie’s  untimely passing.  I will never forget Johnnie and he will always be in my thoughts. 
Rest in Peace my dear friend . I will miss you !

Johnnie always talked about work, family and travelling with me. I had many good conversations with him and will miss him.

Every morning, we shared our greetings while waiting for coffee. Johnnie will be missed. Rest in Peace.

It is sad to lose a colleague, heartbroken to lose a friend.

Johnnie was a great guy, and a good friend.  I truly enjoyed working with him.  He had such a positive attitude, and he was always happy to help you.  
More than that, though, I am proud to call Johnnie a friend.  He was always very encouraging.   Just talking with him about things you liked to do, or your dreams of the future, he would listen and let you know you could do it.  
I ran into Johnnie so many times outside of work, that I actually would look around when I was at a store, just betting that he would be there.  I know that when I'm at a store I will still catch myself looking around expecting him to be there.  I will truly miss my friend Johnnie.
