My heartfelt condolences.
John was always the gentleman and his kindness and consideration toward all will never be forgotten. He was a true friend not only to me but a multitude of others especially in Cuyahoga County OHC. (Ohio Horseman's Council) He always stepped up to help others and advance the unity and friendship we all shared. As a past president he also enjoyed sharing tales of his travels with his beloved wife Annette. He had a great love for his daughter Mia his son in law Rob and glowed in talking about his granddaughter Penelope.
He will always be with us in our hearts and memories and is surely up there riding a fine horse and looking out for all those he loved. I am so sorry for this great loss and send my love and deepest sympathy to Annette and the family.

I met John through his love of horses. He was a constant presence riding and enjoying life to the fullest. He was thoughtful and so incredibly easy to talk with..a true gentleman. The world is a darker place without his smile and laughter. Ride free John! With love, Diane Weinmann
