Hi my brother, I miss you much I hope you that where you're at. You had a wonderful heart just like our Moms. But you also had a hard head and when you made up your about that's just the way it was going to be. I remember so much of the fun times we and I know but you had great sense of humor when you let it out. You would have done anything for your kids, your Grandkids and Great Grandkids. They were your life. You're dedication to family and country will always be remembered. I love you John and I miss you so so much. I hope you're up there with Mom and Dad Jordan and Pete. You all take care of each other and one day we'll see you again
