Nancy Blanchard wrote a sympathy message

“My fun loving, sweet cousin will be missed by so many. He could light up a room with his antics and got me in more trouble than I can recount when I was little because his jokes at the dinner table would always have me laughing. He and Alvin always made an effort to entertain us at Uncle Lewin and Aunt Pearl's on those long Summer days. He had a good life and a devoted family. Every man should hope to have that said about him when he is called home. Love you Johnny”
