When Patricia passed in May we figured John would not want to be on this earth long without her. A true love story between two of the most kind and genuine people I have ever met. We will miss you both always. John, Brandii, and Bri we know your hearts are broken and we are here if we can help you. Much love to all of you.

John, Brandii and all the Gamily; I’ve known your dad since grade school. So sad to lose another classmate. I’m so sorry for your loss. He’s with your mother again and is happy. My heart hurts for you in losing both parents within 2 months of each other. May God’s grace comfort and strengthen you during this difficult and sad time. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
RIP John❣️

The sorrow has no end, but finally Uncle John can be reunited with Aunt Trish. I never seen a man so strong and stubborn that would make you belly laugh at the most random things. I will always cherish our time with him and Trish and miss hearing stories of car remodels and how crazy our government is. Rest in peace uncle John , you made it back to her!
