I'm sorry it's taken this long to communicate. I really have no words, but I've come to the conclusion that God wants the best ones with Him; he calls them Home early. John Michael was not one of the best, he was THE BEST!!! That man was the love of my life, within the first 3 months of knowing him. You guys are an awesome family & I'm sorry I couldn't help in any way. My heart, my spirit are with John, up in the clouds, and my prayers are with y'all every day. With Shelly, as well. John Michael Horn shone brighter than any soul I've encountered. ~prayers, always~

(Guess I did have some words, but
they feel less than enough. Love
all of you)
My heart is broken for you guys. I know how much this hurts me and I can't even imagine how you guys must feel. John was one of the greatest friends I could have ever had. Everyone loved John. He was always so much fun and there was never a dull moment when John was around. We are all going to miss him greatly. You guys are in our prayers. We love you.
We did not know your son, but we’ve had difficult times like you’re going through right now. What ever the age, our kids are still our kids and we’re not supposed to lose them. My wife and I lost two sons in the past (one 21 the other 20) and we cherish their memories, just as you do of John.
You may not think so in the next few weeks, but as time passes you’ll be able to think more on the good times that you had together and less about losing your son.
It is always good to hear people remember and name the one you’ve lost. John will not be forgotten by friends and I hope they’ll have the courage to talk of him with you.
May God comfort you.
I am truly sorry for your loss. I pray God will Bess you during thistime of sorrow.
To John's family, my heart and prayers go out to you. I only learned today of his death and it was such a shock. John was a very close friend to our son Chip Estlinbaum in high school. I was looking at some pictures just this past Saturday from one of Chip's birthday parties and recognized John in several of them. I pray that John is in Heaven playing pranks with our Chip as they did together so often in high school. We will be praying for your family. May God bless and comfort you.
All of you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
I was one of John's teachers at Leslie. He was always one of those kids you never forget. Nothing about him was mainstream or ordinary. When he pulled a stick out of his nose and made someone pass smooth out in Science class, it didn't seem that bizarre when he did it. When he was one of the 2 who accidentally dripped glue in my long hair, it was just a John and Sam thing, not really that unexpected.
Any time I saw him after he graduated he was always so happy to see me...big smile and a "Oh hey!!! How are ya Ms. B?" What a big heart, huge smile, sweet guy. I can't believe he is gone really, but I know he is. I hope his spirit is souring and that he is enjoying the afterlife, all the freedom without any of the restrictions. Love you John.
It doesn't seem enough to say John Horn was an amazing friend that could make anyone laugh. He was THE best friend anyone could have. He was a genius of comedy with the biggest heart. It was impossible to know him and not love him. His presence made everything brighter and his absence is beyond words. My deepest love and condolences to his family.
John is a most excellent friend. I've known him for almost ten years and feel enriched to have had so many happy memories of our friendship. He is greatly missed.
So sorry for your loss, praying for each of you. God Bless.
Dear family and friends.....May God comfort you at this time. I'm the Mama of Jessica Vesecky, her husband is Karl Vesecky.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Sorry for your loss.
John was one of my best guy friends in High School... He used to drive me home after school or we would ride the bus together. He always made me laugh and was such a nice guy to everyone he met. Most people could only hope to have half the personality he had and be liked and missed by so many. I hope that his family and friends find peace in this most difficult time.
I want to express my condolences to the family. John was a great guy. He was always nice and kept me laughing in school. God took another Angel home.
Peace be with all the family and friends such a major loss of such an amazing and wonderful man he always made me feel like a little brother instead of just one of the guys and I'll smile and cherish that along with all the other many many awesome memories of John forever, thanks buddy, till we meet again.
