So sorry for your loss Glenn. I will always remember us playing on your lawn in the Brookdale Subdivision having fun. I remember the fun and laughter we all had together.

John you were always quick to make me laugh and most of the time we were laughing at me. But every once in a while you would take a turn getting picked on. Love you man! God Bless!
Pokey Pete.
