"My father was good friends with John throughout his life. As a child we visited from across the country and John and Thelma made us feel so welcomed and right at home. He was a good man and I know he will be very missed."
"Grateful to know John"
"John not only would do anything for anyone - he did everything for anybody. Fist bumps, talking football, he was definitely a presence. You will live on in HHS history Big Guy."
"My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I worked at the Holland Post Office and waited on John many times. He was so kind and caring. Always enjoyed talking with him. He will be greatly missed."
"John was dearly loved at Maplewood Reformed Church. As an usher, he always had a warm welcome for all who came. As a staff, John was often concerned we had cookies for coffee time. His life impacted so many at Maplewood and beyond. God has received his faithful servant home to a place He has personally prepared for John."
"John was a great guy to talk sports with whenever I saw him at the Dutch Dome . He sure liked the Giants and was always good for a pregame fist bump ."
