My nephew was a wonderful man. He would give the shirt off his back. He would do anything you.. Every time I ask him to do something he was always there. He was known as John B to me my nephew and too many. It was nothing for his mother, Lynell, my sister and all the kids jump in the car and take off and go fishing. I think that was a passion of John B’s. I loved him so much as I do Eric his brother and all the rest. I pray for the family and the children and the grandchildren for the loss of their father, uncle, nephew and pop pop. John B will be missed by many especially me. Until we see each other again enjoy your life and eternity with your mother. Rest in peace buddy, I love you.

My memories of our friendship are ever lasting John B. Almost every one has you in it. What a wonderful privilege it was to have you in my life. We laughed uncontrollably until we cried. I hope you gave momma, daddy & Billy the biggest hugs when you got there. I bet you & daddy had a big laugh about your big blue Chevy. Megan, I love you honey & I am here anytime. I’m praying for all John B’s family, this world is a little darker without him. I love you always John B

John I wish I could be there with you during this time. John was my cousin but he was like a big brother to me. Although we didn’t talk much we did try to keep in touch. You always have meant alot to me and you know why. You helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life and I want to take your pain away. You have alot of love around you. And I’m one of those people. Love you ❤️

Dear John & Susan, I wish I could be there to give you each a big hug. I am holding you both in my heart right now. My thoughts and prayers are with you especially at this difficult time. I never met your son, John, however from what I have read he sounds like an amazing person with a caring heart. Sending my love, Cousin Ginette L’Allier
