Tributes

John will always be remembered as the polite, quiet man standing behind the candles at church. I always think of him when we take a candle and he’s not there. John gave a lot of his time to the community and the church and I’m sure that his respectful demeanor will be missed by many. May he rest in peace. Condolences to the family.
