To my husband/best friend:
I love you. I miss you. I wish you were here. I miss being able to talk to you about any and everything. You kept me busy, even after your journey “home”. I am praying for the family. You know me, I will always keep praying for them.
Forever your wife.

TO MY DEAREST FRIEND LINDA HYATT-TORRES,
I am so sorry for your loss, actually our loss! John was always smiling even when he was suffering inside immensely! I know for a fact you were by his side every moment possible and I saw how you two loved each other and had many good times together! You were always there to help him no matter what it was, no matter how you suffered afterwards with your back issues, you put all that aside to help your loved one, your best friend John! I am here for you my friend as I hope you realize are so many. We love you dearly and witnessed first hand your devotion to this great Man! Lotsa Love Always!

Rest well buddy, Tell your parents I said hello and give my bro a hug for me. You will be truly missed, but never forgotten. Your legal name was John, and they called you Dedo, but you will always be “Fingers” to me.
