    I really don't know where to start besides just trying to keep it brief. I met John in middle school and we made a connection after about 25yrs of living our life's. He was the speaker at my daughter's 1st N.A. meeting. He was a true blessing, he helped me help my daughter. And then we started a life together! He connected with all three of my children, especially with my youngest,She will forever think of him as her step-father! A lot of fond memories! My heart goes out to the MIRAMONTES familia. May John rest in PEACE....oxox
