John,
As we watched a 500 picture slide-show of you and thought it was too short, know that we will miss you. Your laughter, jocularity, irreverence, hard-work and charm are going to be missed. You were the canonical uncle: fun, mischievous, good of heart and cheer. It sucks insanely that we will never see or hear you again. Our hearts go out to your wife Ellen. For those that have never met you and there lives would have been better for it, a few pictures are offered.
Love always,
Dave & Deanna
