John "Big John" was such a blessing to me as my caddie, coach, and friend at Peachtree Golf Club for many years. John later became a wonderful friend to my son, Kav. We will miss his kindness and friendship, but have so many wonderful memories of our times together. 🙏🏻

"Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there is a trail of beautiful memories". I will always remember our time together at the BTW Class Reunion and our talks on the phone.
