    John was one of my favorite students. When John walked into the classroom with a smile on his face, the room was suddenly very bright. He made others smile and laugh, and they loved him for that and more. John was one of those students who, regardless of what he might have done, could never make you angry. He was special that way. John, you will be missed, much more than you could have imagined. Rest In Peace and in the knowledge that you were loved.

    I remember the first day I met John he was working at sonic and I started working there every day he was always said hello the more I got to know him the more I realized how great of a guy he was. He shared so many stories with me and so many laughs and those are things I’ll keep with me forever. Rest easy John ❤️ Fly high ?? Gone but never forgotten

You have many many people mourning your loss but for your close circle of real friends/loved ones it hurts the most. You have a beautiful baby girl that’s so blessed to have had you as her dad and your gorgeous girlfriend Heather who’s love for you is endless! We will miss you John, every day…forever. You’re at rest now. Love you forever buddy.

    In 43 years in the pool business there haven’t been more than a handful of young men that really had the talent and the drive to be the future of the pool Industry, and John was defintely one that was a great asset to the pool Industry, and would of been for many years to come . I recognize ” Talent ” when I see it and John had had it all!!!! He was a up and coming young man that loved building pools . I will miss him dearly, but even more the pool Industry will forever be at a loss, he had soooo much Potenital!!! He was my last protege . God Bless .
