John was always looking for the big ones. He was thrilled when Jim got this one. Hunter n I enjoyed hunting with John. He is a true Southern Gentleman. He made us feel welcome from the beginning. Just like one of the family. John was one of a kind and will be dearly missed. The next hunt will be for you Buddy!
Mr. John always had a smile to offer anyone he saw. Always hand in the air waving when we would go out our front door. I like to think he watched out for me, because one day I was coming down the steps and fell. Early in the morning, he was sitting on the porch and saw me and here he come. Full speed across the street, shorts, barefoot, coffee in hand hollering oh lord, oh lord. He helped me up. I was fine and from that day forward he would holler careful going down them steps! Then laugh…. 🙏🏻
A sweet, sweet man that loved his wife, Dianne tremendously. Always talking about her. He will be missed. 🙏🏻 Belinda Bennett
To all of his family and friends I would like to give my condolences to you all . Mr John has been a dear friend of mine for many years . I always loved playing cards with him and listening to his hunting and fishing adventures . He will be extremely missed by all of his poker buddies . Rest in peace Mr John .
