John Coker

Message from Holts

My family and I would like to express our deepest sympathy over the loss of John.
May you find comfort in your loving memories and the warmth of family and friends. A scripture that has uplifted me during times such as this is found at Revelation 21:4. There it describes a time when death and pain will be gone forever after God restores his original purpose for the earth. We will even see our loved ones again who we have lost in death (John 5:28 & 29). It is our hope that these words bring you a measure of comfort during this difficult time as well. Once again, please accept our condolences as you deal with your loss.

Message from Steve Brodie

My condolences to his family and all who knew him. I am so sorry to hear of Johnny's passing. Since we met in the 4th grade and all of the time we spent together through high school, I always knew him as Johnny. So please forgive me for not using his adult name. I hope he wouldn't have been too upset. I always admired him for his work with wildlife. In fact I was jealous of him doing that work he loved. I could have easily spent my life doing the same thing but my life unfolded differently. I have thought of him many times over the years and I am very sad that I didn't get to see him at least one more time.

My heart goes out to all the family. I have not seen Johnny in many years , he was always a gentleman, with a smile on his face and fun to be with. I just had the pleasure of being with his sister a few weeks ago. Judy, I'd love to give a big hug.
God Be with you.

Message from Tom Dempsey

Saying I'm sorry for your loss just doesn't seem adequate. You & especially Johnny had such a positive influence in my life. I admired Johnny & found him to be wise beyond his years. I'll always regret not staying intouch with you two, but I'll always cherish my memories of our time together.
