Marcy,
Our hearts are breaking with yours.
John was such a great, one of kind, man. The mold was broken long ago. He was so kind, gentle, strong and sweet and very entertaining! When he told a joke, his face would crack with the biggest smile and laugh so hard, most times before he finished telling the joke! After we caught up with his laughter, I would always tell him, "You slay, you." (John knew what I meant). John will never be forgotten and will always, always be remembered.
Marcy, when you broke the sad news to me, I was truly in awe of your spirit and strength. Our faith reminded me that God is showering his blessings on you at this very moment and I feel you have found peace in His comfort and He has given you the strength and courage to go on, but should you lose your footing, please let your friends carry you. Mark and I are here for you. Whatever you need, it will be done.
