    My father was always there for his loved ones and truly loved us but had a hard time verbalizing it. Dad, we knew you cared for us deeply and I personally will always respect you for the man, husband and father that you were. R.I.P.

    John was a very unique individual, and I was certainly influenced by him in my time knowing him. One of his best qualities, I feel, was that he did things his way, and was extremely confident regarding those ways. He loved his family very much. Rest In Peace, Sir.
