Mr. John was such a great human being. I worked with him in the afterschool program, and we made great memories together at work. He was truly natural with kids and never failed to make anyone smile or laugh. I will not be able to attend the funeral due to a prior commitment of being in a wedding, but please know I am sending lots of love to the family, I feel so honored that Mr. John was a part of my life.

Family,
This is a very difficult time for all of us. I still don't want to believe it. Uncle Lee was humble,unassuming,and a gentle spirit. He was a man of few words,yet his presence always spoke volumes. Rely on your faith and trust in God that HE will always see you through. With deepest sympathy.
