i remember him carrying the old stove with ceramic front and iron inside. heavy heavy he got it all the way to the last step and couldnt get it around that sharp turn
It stuck there for about an hour.
Then he came back with the big tongan who was working on Beesley's mall next door. The two of them lifted it all the way up into the air above my head over the railing post and out the front door.
if Johnny couldn't do it all by himself he' d find a way
I will always remember going fishing with John and grandpa. He taught me some tips and tricks for the claw machines growing up. He would give the shirt off his back to help anyone in need. Putting everyone ahead of himself. Amazing person in all ways. He will always be in my heart and memories. Love you uncle John.
Even though I didn’t see John very often, I still have vague memories from when I was a kid. It was always a package deal when I went to great grandma & grandpa Vanhuizen’s because typically I always remember John being there too. No matter what he’d always make sure to say hello which always gave a warm welcome! He was always helping out his parents, no matter if he was doing outdoor chores or grabbing something for someone whenever they’d mention it. He was always very giving! I remember what I think was the last time I seen him, all the family was at the Christmas Eve party at Dave’s and John has this gigantic black garbage bag full of gifts to give to us all. Moral of the story I just feel I always seen John as the most welcoming, giving, and helping person and he will be so very missed. RIP Uncle John, fly high!
