John, you will be truly missed. We were certainly blessed to have you a part of our family. To have known you was to love you praise God! I know you will always be with us in spirit because you have a special place in our hearts. I love you my dear brother-in-law, but God loved you more! ❤️ R.I.P.
Uncle John, it feels like you've been around for as long as I can remember. This family will undoubtedly miss your presence, but never lose you in spirit. Few things denote the mark of a good man as reliably as this.
I truly hope you are resting peacefully knowing your family felt the love you shared with us, and we appreciate that it was time for your due blessings to take another form. I send my love and best wishes that you were welcomed home in Heaven as warmly as you welcomed all who shared your Earthly residence.
Until we meet again,
Adrian
Uncle John, I really don't know what to say but you really got us with this one. You were one of the most sweetest uncles I had and would give your last to help anyone. When God called you home it really broke my heart but heaven needed an angel, he picked you. I just wished he could have waited and you let stay with us a little while longer. You have left wonderful memories in our hearts and that'd were they will always be. I just wish I could rewind the clock or slow it down so I could've hugged you one more before you had to go. You will be missed dearly Uncle John. We love you. The Gleghorn crew.
Uncle John was the most sweetiest man I have ever known. He will truly be missed. Always had a great conversation with him. A gentle Gaint!❤️
I'm going to miss John saying "Yes Janis" .
We could always count on John being wherever we were as a family. You will always be in my heart and mind ♥️
Uncle John was very down to earth with a kind-hearted soul. I always seen him as a gentle giant with a warm demeanor. One of the things I liked most about him was he always called me by name of choice and never missed a beat. At times, he would even correct others if he heard someone call me by the wrong name. I will always remember and appreciate him for having my back in that way. I am so grateful that I got see him during the 2021 Thanksgiving holiday. The world has lost another angel on earth, but he will forever live in the hearts who loved him. Rest in heaven my dear, sweet Uncle!
Love,
Denise Moret
