Uncle John, as he was called, was a kind and loving father, a noble, an honest neighbor, a veteran of the Civil War. He leaves behind to mourn his departure--six children, twenty-five grandchildren, fourteen great grandchildren, one own brother, one own sister, five half-brothers and two half-sisters, a host of relatives and friends.
