My Sweet Son

It is with a very heavy heart that I share with you the news of the passing of my youngest son, John Anthony on November 4, 2014. John was only 37 years old and spent most of his adult life fighting the demons of drug addiction that took his life.  John had a very loving heart, always willing to give all that he had to those in need. It was not uncommon for him to approach a total stranger and give them a compliment just to see them smile. If you met John, he considered you his friend for life.

  14. Tammy my heart is very heavy as I read this. I know with absolute clarity what you and your family and especially John have experienced.
    My youngest brother fought the same demons - he lost his battle 3 years ago.
    There are no words that I can offer but know that there are tears weeping from my eyes as I read your loving words.
    Remember the smile and the love.
