My Uncle John was a soft spoken man who as a child I adored, I think he was my first love!
He was a skilled plumber and was always willing to help his family out when they had plumbing problems. He along with my Aunt Bernadine organized a yearly Family Picnic at their Centerline Park which we had enjoyed for many years. Rain or shine we all had a good time!
He was a Proud WWII Veteran and he and my Dad also a WWII Veteran shared their war stories...He was proud to fly the US Flag faithfully. This year he would have been 90 yrs. old which happens to be Flag Day, June 14th.....I cherish a picture of him wearing his Army jacket, which still fit him well....
I am grateful to have visited with him recently and gave him a hug and was able to tell him I loved him. He will be missed but his memory will always be there in our hearts.
All my Uncles were Special and he was the last one to leave us...I hope they are all reunited now....

Rest in Peace Uncle John. Our sympathy to our dear Aunt Bernadine and Family.
Uncle John was always a soft spoken man and offered his skill as a plumber when it was needed, to help the family out....He took charge of organizing a Family Picnic at Centerline Park that went on for many years. He was a very Proud Veteran to say the least and still was able to fit in his Army jkt.! I was hoping he would have been able to make it for his 90th Birthday this year.....but God called him home...
I was able to visit with him earlier this month and I'm so happy I got to hug and tell him I loved him....I will miss him dearly..

Although he had a different way of showing it, I know in my heart that my Uncle John loved his family deeply and that he knew that he was the luckiest man in the world for having married Aunt Bernadine. She is the sweetest, most devout wife and mother a family could be Blessed with. God speed Uncle John. I hope you are already having a "shot and a beer" with the Angels. Love, Gail

I will truly miss my Uncle John as we had some good conversations when I visited him and while cutting his hair. He was proud to be a WWII veteran and truly enjoyed his time spent in service. I thank him for all the good memories he shared with me about my Dad, the cottage and the family picnics. Rest in Peace.
