Michelle & Emig Nohra Our hearts were broken when hearing this news. We recently had
the privilege of spending more time with Elaine and John since moving closer to us. We spent some beautiful days out on the water
with John as our captain. His smile and calm demeanor is something we should all learn from. I am in a state of disbelief that such a beautiful spirit was taken from us so young. I will believe that he will always be Elaine Shayna and Kaylee s guardian angel in all they do in life. His love for Elaine and her daughters was a love so special he was an absolute godsend in their lives. He will always be their father and protector. As difficult as it is to lose such a beautiful person the memories he created over so many years will bring them to smile daily.
Rest in peace John, we love you and we were so thankful you were
Such a special person to our friend and her daughters. You will be forever missed.
Michelle & Emig Nohra
