Oh wow it’s so hard to keep this short. I had the honor to work with this funny, up beat, caring, amazing man. I remember he would always find some way to crack me up or be so happy to talk about his grand kids. He always lit up the room and he will be missed so very much.

Our hearts, thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Miles kept us apart but we all have Grandma Clune to keep us updated on all of our lives and what we all were up to. She always shared the love Uncle John had for his wife and family. We all have memories,being old or recent, of laughter support and true kindness from our Uncle John. I know how proud he was of all of you and his smile spoke of the love in his heart. Words can not heal but love from family, being near or far, will hopefully guide you through the tough times.

What can I say about my brother? He was a great brother,father,husband,and son. He called my mother at least twice a month. He also came to see her every year on her Birthday. That ment so much to her. Every time I would visit them on vacation they always made me feel welcome. I know he truly loved Cindy,John, and Erin. It is a tribute to both Cindy and John how loving and kind their children are. I love my brother and will miss him . I will think of him every Sunday when I eat a doughnut.
