Debbie, John and Lindsey,

We want you to know we are thinking about you. John was such a great man and we were so sad to hear of his passing. We had so many great times when we were stationed there in Charleston with you! We will keep you in our prayers. Take care.

John was always there when someone needed a hand. He was a good friend and we will miss him a lot! May you be comforted by friends and family in your time of deep sorrow.

John was a good friend and co-worker. He and I always struck up a conversation about whatever was going on in the world today and he made work bearable when we worked our normal C-17 aircraft headaches. He loved his family. Both Eric and John Jr. played on the same T-ball and Coach pitch teams back in the early 90's. Debra, my son Eric went on to be with Jesus on the 15th of September of 1999. He was there to greet Big John and walk the streets of gold together. Many people have told me, and I am sure it is true, that if both Eric and John were to be asked if they could come back to us they would probably say no because they are in paradise now. I love all three of you. May God bless you all and if you need anything, email or call anytime. Love, Ray, Jana, and Bradley Seaver
