John was a kind and generous man who left this world way too soon. His diagnosis came two weeks ago and the Lord took him today. GOD must have had something very special for John to do in heaven that he couldn't wait.
A golden heart stopped beating. Two smiling eyes at rest. Patti, John John and Joey God ripped your hearts wide open to prove he only takes the best.
He will be missed deeply by his wife, Patti and two son's John John and Joey. Along with many other family members and friends.

Thinking of you, Patti and the boys today. You've been gone 4 months tomorrow. The time goes by so very fast and you are deeply missed.
FOREVER MORE IN GOD'S ETERNAL LIGHT
Those we love must someday pass
Beyond our present sight;
They must leave us and the world we know
Without their radiant light.
But we know that, like a candle,
Their lovely light will shine
To brighten up another place,
More perfect, more divine;
And in the realm of heaven
Where they shine so warm and bright,
Our loved ones live forever more
In God's eternal light.
FOR MY FAMILY
I have not turned my back on you,
so there is no need to cry.
I'm watching you from heaven,
just beyond the morning sky.
I've seen you almost fall apart,
when you could barely stand.
I asked the Lord to comfort you,
and watched him take your hand.
He told me you are in more pain,
then I could ever be.
He wiped his eyes and swallowed hard,
then gave your hand to me.
Although you may not feel my touch,
or see me by your side.
I've whispered that I love you,
while I wiped each tear you cried.
So please try not to ache for me,
we'll meet again one day,
beyond the dark and stormy sky,
a Rainbow lights the way.

RIP JOHN
For all the laughs, smiles, jokes, fun family times, and the hard times too, you were always there & supportive for everyone. You always stayed positive. You helped my cousin get through some of the hardest times in her life, and for that you will always have a special place in my heart. Even in your final moments, while holding your hand, and having you talk back with me, are moments that will be in my heart for always. Thank you for calling me & spending time with me still smiling, on my birthday. It will be one I will never forget. I will always love you & never forget you, Bean XOXO
Sleep and rest, Have peace and calm. Forever blessed In heaven's arms. Loved, remembered and held so dear, In minds and hearts you're always here♥
Love always xxxx
John, for the time that you spent with us all, i always admired your smile and laugh. It was how you were always such a happy guy, it was something that could never be forgotten. Although this past month has been so hard for all of us and it is so painful to watch my cousins cry because you aren't here, i know your smiling down on us. I wish that you could've overcome this, but god must've needed you for something special. I want you to know that your family will always be taken care of. I love JJ and Joey like there my little brothers and i promise you I'll always take care of them and Patti, no matter what i have to do. Just know we love you John and we miss you dearly, you'll always be in our hearts.

Uncle John you will be missed so, so much. You are one the greatest, kindness man I ever knew. Your smile could light up the room. You always were there for us no matter what and that is why you have no concern we will be here for your family. I know you will be with us always and I know you will for sure be looking down on my daughter, for the bond you both had might have been short but will last forever. Thank you John for being the man you were, you showed us how to be we should be always with that smile on your face. I miss you greatly, but you will always be in our hearts forever.
Love you,
Sarah Rivera and Siarah Ortiz
John, I couldn't have asked for a better husband to spend the last 12 years with. You gave me two beautiful children and a life of so many memories. I love you so much honey and I never will stop. You will be with me always. Thank you for our time together. I miss you so much it hurts.
When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye,
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
So much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for awhile,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
Would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne,
He said "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you."
Today for life on earth is past,
But here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last,
And since each day's the same day
There's no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true.
Thought there were times you did some things,
You knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven
And now at last you're free.
So won't you take my hand
And share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart. (author unknown)
God bless you and your family xx
