I would give anything to hear you say "Hey Bear and Love you sis!" just one more time. I will love you forever!!!
It is so hard to lose someone from your family and friends, especially someone as young as John. I know he had a large circle of friends and family that will miss him always. My prayers go out to all of you that all the good memories will be of help in this time of loss.

To Carter's Family, I am unable to come to viewing or services due to work, he is not an immediate family so my jobs do not allow me to go. My condolences are with them family, and praying for strength and comfort. He was a very special friend to me. I hate to see him go, but on the other hand he is lucky not to be here with all this hate in the world.... R.I.P. Carter...
You will be missed
John I'm going to miss you coming through the unit, stopping to chat and swap stories. Always there when we needed you. Rest in peace my friend.
