  3. See you later friend!

    We pray for the Lord to be with April and Addison during this time of loss so that He may give you both strength and understanding of this tragedy. John will be missed and he really was a stand up guy that had a smile and a hand shake every time I would see him. Many times as it is in small towns our children often frequent the same birthday parties and other functions that were not always our cup of tea but we make small sacrifices for the happiness of our children. Please Lord lift them up with the good times during the hard times! Love y’all! The Potter’s

  5. I am so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of watching John grow up as a little boy living next door to me. He always had such a caring and loving heart. His smile always lit up the room.
