John, Dad, Uncle
John, Papa John, Fondu : you were a presence, not just a person. You were
a presence put on this earth to create an amazing family and bring joy
and laughter to every person you met, and you sure did do that. In our
grief we are shaken by the totality of you. You had an unquestionable love
for your family, friends, animals and music. You accepted everyone you
would meet. You enjoyed being with people, hearing and telling funny
stories and making people laugh. And oh boy was your laughter contagious.
The stories that you gave everyone to keep and hold in their hearts or
tell the world will go on forever. To say that you could fix things is an
understatement, you had a way with your hands and if anyone ever got to
hold those hands they would know how hard you worked but most importantly
how much love you put into all the different things you did over the
years. Though we want to be selfish out of love and have you back here on
earth with us, we know God called you home so you can fish with two legs
in heaven with your family there. Pretty sure God wants to hear those
stories in person so keep them PG. God please be patient with him because he
cannot help but to say “Boom Shakalaka” and sing Who Let The Dog’s, like a
lot. One amazing thing we all do know is, God put you on this earth to
touch so many people's lives so that we can continue where you left off.
God gave us you to do that and we are all eternally grateful to Him. With
all this said, there is not enough to be said about you, so until we see
each other again just know you will be missed greatly and we got this.
With All Our Love,
Rest In Peace John Albert McQuigg Jr.
Love Your
Family and Friends
