Pete and I are so sorry for your loss. John was a great guy. NASCAR Sundays eating chicken wings at the Legion. He will always be in our hearts. So sad for you Susie and John’s family. We will miss him. Sue and Pete Kottom

I was very sorry to learn of John’s passing. Susie always spoke very highly of him, and often told me that he was “the kindest man in the world.” I pray that she and the rest of the family can find peace during this very difficult time. Safe travels John.

My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Susie talked about John at school and mentioned how kind and wonderful he was. May God grant you His peace as you mourn the loss of a great human being. A friend of Susie Brown.

I knew John and Susie from Karoake over the last several years. Susie is the singer, and John the support. John was always calm and relaxed, and enjoyed his time at the various venues with Susie. They were a lovely and loving couple, and enjoyed many good times as partners. John was a gentle soul, and loved his family and grandchildren very much. He will be missed. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I didn’t have a chance to meet John yet I know he was a caring person from the stories Susie shared . Every Friday Susie would connect with John during his chemo to chat .
Cherish all your special times together.

So sorry for your loss John will be missed by many . My prayers to his family for peace and comfort knowing he is at peace .

John was always friendly, kind, humble and had a good sense of humor. Was great knowing him over the years and seeing him and Susie at the Dan Patch American Legion. We’ll miss him.

Please accept our deepest sympathies.

Our sympathies on John’s passing. We knew him from Karaoke at David Fongs and he will be deeply missed.

I work with Susan at Hidden Valley Elementary as a reading tutor and I did not know John very well but I learned of him through Suzie’s stories of him. I am so sorry for John’s passing. I know that he was a very good father and he loved his children very much. I know that he had a big heart. Suzie and John shared a love for the past ten years or more. They shared many happy times together. We will all miss him.

I have known John for many years, but he started coming to Karaoke a lot more after he met Susie Brown and then he really started loving Karaoke! He never sang, but he loved to listen to Susie sing and he became her Karaoke driver! I am really going to miss him, he was such a sweet soft spoken man. My condolences go out to his family & friends at this very difficult time.! I am so saddened to hear about his passing, such a sad time for all.

So sorry to hear about John. Our condolences to Suzie and his family. He was such a good and caring person. I always enjoyed seeing him and talking with him at karaoke. He was a really good pool player and I always enjoyed watching him beat Karen on Monday nights.

Although I didn’t John well, I know how happy he made my sister Susie. And she adored him! Of special memory is a trip they made to Hawaii a few years ago. John went out of his way to make a suprise stopover in Seattle so Susie and I could see each other. What a wonderful day we all had! How caring and unselfish an act, like so many Susie has told me of. To all of you who are suffering, I extend to you my sincere condolences. May you all lean on and love one another in this sad time.

I want to express my sincere sympathy to the family & friends of John who all knew & loved him. I am so sorry for your loss. He was such a good kind man & I hope your wonderful memories of him will help get you thru this difficult time. I knew John from seeing him at several singing locations when he was there with his special love Susi. They were always so happy together & I could tell how much they loved each other. He was truly a special man who was loved & will be missed by many.

Jim & Cathy, please accept our heartfelt condolences on your brother John. Please know we will keep your entire family in our prayers. Take care of yourselves.

My condolences to the whole family. I know how wonderful he was through Sue. I am so sorry for your loss Susie. My prayers to all of you. God bless your family and may he hold you in his arms and comfort you. Mary

I was happy to have gotten to know John a little bit over the last several years, he was always a pleasure to be around. He told me about his own children, spoke of them glowingly. Sincere, genuine, and kind; I give his family and friends my condolences.

So sorry to hear of John’s passing. My condolences to all. I knew John through my sister, Susie, when they would come up north to visit our parents and family. He was lots of fun and always ready to lend a hand when needed. He will be greatly missed by all. Becky

We are so sorry for your loss. Our deepest sympathy. Prayers are with you all at this time of grieving.
With Love

It’s been ten days since John breathed his last breath of life. He loved his sons. He bragged about how handsome Paul is. I argued my Kraig was cuter, but we decided the 2 of them could fight it out. Sean is the best husband and Dad a father could ever ask for. And Kyle is the son I knew the best. He was very experimental in the kitchen and would bring John treats from Perkins. His travelogues from Japan were awesome, and his solving of computer problems were epic. To add Maverick to the story. Every time John came home after being with Mav warmed my heart, but energized John’s stamina to live. And Nikki giving him Vale to hold… If you could have seen the joy in his beautiful face. I was so thankful. The 10 years I got to spend with John were the most incredible years of my life. I learned to love more completely, and I will miss him forever. Thank you John. Love always, Susie
