Oh John the memories are numerous. The dinners with you and Jodi. The time you were out of town and you called me to take her to the hospital. The births of your last 3 children. The dinners and swimming with you and Tara. The hot ride to the races in Columbus. We were burning up on our Harleys! Words cannot express the depth of our sorrow. We loved you so much John and will be sorely missed. Until we see each other again, we hope you are finally at peace. All our love, Jeff & Amy Harris.
John the Brother I always loved. And will always love. I’ve always looked up to you. When we were kids. I remember the times we would spend the summer days at a pay lake fishing and having fun. And playing street ball with everyone in the neighborhood. And everything else we did growing up. I’ll miss you forever. And one day we will meet back up. You will always be loved. And in my prayers. I love you my Brother. Miss you.
I’ll cry as I type for the loss of my brother. I don’t understand how this world works to have taken a man so full of life . He lived life to its fullest . Loved his beautiful children and family . I’ll miss you and my heart is broken that you are gone . I love you .
Every once in a great while, a person touches your life whom you instantly trust like a brother.
JB, was that person for me.
He and John Rich rode their motorcycles along side me in the memorial procession for my husband. They stopped at every intersection and held back traffic, so all the bikes could make it through safely. He checked on me several times after and explained that he understood my pain….he’s been family every since then.
Be at peace, John Brill.
