I am so sorry to hear this news. John was a special person. He was always very gracious to me and my family. I have so many wonderful memories of him. I had the pleasure of hearing him sing several times and it was amazing. Rest In Peace Big John.

A beautiful man, an incredible brother-in-law and great friend. We have lost a real treasure. His voice has been silenced, but I will always hear him say “pass the ketchup!” Thanks for the memories, John. I am missing you.
Love, Pat Thomas

Oh Cindy, I’m so very sorry for you loss. John Clune was such a good and fun loving guy. All the Parker’s are sending our loving wishes and prayers for you, Cindy, Little John and Erin and all your family. John was so good to everybody.

You are a strong women my friend. I can just hear and see John umpiring all those baseball games. He had that loud and big booming voice when he called anybody out. “OOOOUUUUTTTTTT”. I can hear it now. May he Rest In Peace, Cindy. He’s is a better place, you know! God Bless you Cindy and your kids. Much love from all the Parkers–Betsy, Brad, Billy and Brent.
