John ,
I met you at Golds Gym and you always had the best laugh . We had so much fun at the gym and going out for a few beers . I remember watching the Mike Tyson fight at your dad’s house when Buster Douglas knocked him out . In the short time we knew each other , we became brothers . Thirty years later you are still in my prayers . If I’m lucky enough to make it to heaven, I know you will be there and we will laugh again !!! God Bless you and your family !!

Happy Fathers Day John
I love you brother
