I just had the pleasure of meeting this gentleman within this last month. Of course when he told me his name I asked about him being related to Jenny. He just beamed with pride and went on to talk about Zander and having Mark around his little finger. I teased him about his joking personality and he went on to kid around even more. You have lost a wonderful man and my condolences to you all at this time. Remember his smile and teasing ways. I know I will remember him that way. I had hoped to chat with him again.

Many wonderful memories of John and Delores. Brian enjoyed their AA encounters. We enjoyed visiting with him and always admired his tinkering ability and quest for socializing.

What a smart man ! It only goes to show just because we have a 'little' age on us doesn't mean we are useless. We were created to live forever yet because of death our lives are cut short. Our Heavenly Father's promise will very soon do away with death. Enjoy reading this in Revelation 21:3-5. jw.org

John leaves a big void for all of us left behind. He and I were given the gift of sobriety about the same time. His gentle demeanor and that twinkle in his eyes will be remembered by me and my fellow members in the " program ". He shared his experience, strength and hope with us and did it with dignity and respect.
We both were retired military and both left Alexandria in the spring of 2015. He went west and I went east.
I lived out of state from 2002 through 2013. When I returned to Alec, I met a man who had recently lost the love of his life. Now he must be wearing that wonderful smile and sporting that twinkle in his eyes.
I salute my military brother and may his soul rest in peace.
With deepest sympathy and respect,
Mark Roers

John and I went through treatment at the old Marion together. I just remember all his wisdom and no nonsense approach to the program that helped a lot of people. We shared our birthday sept 4 and the fact we were both regular navy and became very good friends. Rest in peace big guy!

Our sympathy to you, Sandy, for the loss of your father. Al knew your Dad through the shop, and thought he was a really nice guy, and a great talker! I never met your Dad, but I can tell by looking at his photo that he must have been a peach. You are in our thoughts and prayers. AAE

Mark, Sandy, Lana and Glenn So very sorry to hear of Johns passing. I have great memories of both he and your mom while growing up. I remember him as a talented and funny guy with much more patience than he should have had with Mark and me. Take comfort in knowing he is with your mom now.

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I loved both John and Delores. When Lindy was born, they were so happy for us to get a little girl. They both were loved by many. Love, Kori
