John F.-Husband, Dad, Papa, Son, Brother, Uncle

Hi everyone, the sudden loss of Dad has brought on some financial hardships for our family. Because we lost him in San Diego, we have to travel back there to bring him back home after cremation. Then of course the medical bills, as well as the fees associated with the cremation. A long time ago, Dad decided he did not want a funeral or memorial or any type of service so we are respecting his wishes. The funds raised from this gofundme will go directly to his cremation, medical bills, and an obituary.

From our family to yours and from the deepest part of our hearts, we thank you in advanced for your donation.

Dad, things just aren't the same without you. The pain and sorrow is still very fresh, it is still very real. You sacrificed a lot for us. You pushed yourself for us. You loved us. We didn't realize how much love you had for us until you left us to go meet our maker to go help God do an important job up in heaven. There is never a good time to leave, but we truly believe you left at the perfect time. We were lead on this path for you. We may not realize it now because we are blinded by the pain, but God truly gave you the best exit of this world and entrance into heaven. He gave you your one last dance with Mom. He gave you your one last perfect day at Laguna Beach watching our babies play, sitting and enjoying everything yours and Mom's beach has to offer..... peace. God allowed you to express your love and gratitude for us, one last time. All of this, one last time before He and the angels came to take you to heaven. Many aren't given this gift. One day, we will see through the pain and we, too, will be at peace. Continue to rest in peace, Dad. We love you so so much. ✝️❤
