You are in our thoughts and prayers during this awful time.

Want top pass along our condolences on the passing of John. Though its been many years since we've seen your family, hearing of Johns death brought back many fond memories of your family and John. To this day, I still love to tell the story of when the power went out at your house at 12AM as we all celebrated the Y2K New Year.
Still in shock from the news. -The Ottavio Family

I recall playing ping pong with John when he was about 12 years old in his parent's basement. The mischievous grin and the tenacity of every return was apparent in his face. He was a delightful kid and a very charismatic young man. At Emily's wedding I had the pleasure to see what a wonderful young adult he had become. His effervescent personality radiated as he spoke and his concern and regard for who he was talking to apparent. The world lost a fantastic soul when John was suddenly taken from us. I miss him now and will reflect on the character he displayed at such an early age. Betty and Jack and family my deepest sympathies to you on the loss of John.

I know to my Aunt Betty and Uncle Jack their kids are everything, and I cannot imagine the devastation that the loss of John is causing them. Regretfully, I do not know John well, but from everything I've heard of him, they have every reason to love and adore him, and he will be sorely missed by everyone who has the pleasure of knowing him.

So very sorry. We are all thinking of all
Of you and sending our thoughts and prayers.

I am deeply sorry to hear about the passing of your loved one. May you and your family find peace, comfort, courage and lots of love through this time of sorrow; and May Jehovah keeps your beloved son in His memory (Acts 24:15)

I'm so very sorry to hear of this devastating loss. Sending prayers for Betty, Jack, Emily and all who loved John.

Dear Betty,
I am so very sorry – Sending peace, love and light to you and your family. You are all in my prayers.

Please accept my deepest and heartfelt condolences at the loss of your Son John. Your loss is unimaginable, and I pray the light and power of the Lord God shines upon you and your family to help get rid of the pain.

Jack, Betty, Emily and Sam – Our sincerest condolences on the loss of John. Anyone who had the pleasure of knowing this sweet, gentle, kind young man is feeling an empty place in their hearts without him. As we all try to move forward in the days to come, he will be remembered with bittersweet memories of the happiness that he brought us all, especially his family. It was apparent that he loved you all just as you loved him, so step forward day by day keeping this in the forefront of your minds. Prayers and hugs to all of you. God bless.

I met John this past year and befriended him at work, he sat beside me in our cubicles, we had many conversations and I had admiration for him coming to Florida and starting his new life. I am so saddened, and pray for the family's comfort. My deepest condolences. May sweet John RIP.

Heartfelt condolences to the Merlina family. I had the pleasure of working with John over the past year and I truly enjoyed getting to know him both personally and professionally (through a computer). John will be dearly missed and never forgotten by his team at Mosaic.

An Angel was born and brought to Earth by Cupid.
An Angel has left us for Heaven as God prepared wings for All Saints Day. Many were blessed to have known John on Earth. Many mourn the loss with his family. John believed and will have eternal life just as we will have our memories forever. Deepest sympathy and love.
