John, you will always be remembered.
Your smile, laughter and readiness to help was there for anyone at anytime who needed it.
You never said no to anyone in need.
Once a person finished talking to you they felt better…I felt better…we all felt better.
I will always remember your laughter, your smile, and how you always wanted to help others.
I don’t know why God chose to call you home so soon.
Maybe it’s because He needed another angel by His side.
Maybe now you are that angel, watching over all of us all day, every minute of the day, everyday. God knows we need it, especially now.
One thing for sure.
We will grieve your passing. We will all grieve your loss.
Sadness and tears are not a bad thing…it means we care. It means we love you. Grieving is an important part of life.
I will allow the grieving so I can get to the other side where I remember the joy you brought to the world.
Our goal is to celebrate your life. I believe from heaven you are watching over us wanting us to be happy. You were and are and will always be that guy that wanted to do God’s work which for me its to help others, put a smile on their face and help lighten their load of suffering. You did that every single day John. What great memories you live us with of you. Thank you John, Thank you my friend.
Your smile, your laughter, your kindness, and your willingness to help anyone, anytime will always live in my heart.
You will never be forgotten.
I love you John.
Andre ❤️
