Janet Butler wrote a sympathy message

“My husband and I were not privileged to know Pastor John personally but our Life Group prayed for him for quite some time. His sister E.J. is such a wonderful Godly woman and shines her light to us all. We are sorry for the loss of John and all who are affected by this passing. Know that his type of Christian love and caring for others is at work right here in Orlando by his sister and her wonderful husband. George and Janet Butler First Baptist Church Orlando”
