Although I didn’t know John and Karen, God does. May God give you, their family, the peace that passes all understanding. Because He Lives, Amy S. Osteen

He was a very loving Uncle and I’m going to miss him very much. But I have great memories.

Such a wonderfull man to have known and worked with for several years @ WW Ironworks. He was loyal to God, his country, his family and his friends and added a big personality to some trying times for us all. He was a man with many hats & “do rags” and was right at home in any of them. He and Karen were a beautiful couple and I am proud they got to stay together. My sympathy to all of you and especially his “partner, Shoe”.
