John was such a sweet man. When my sons were small, John sat with them in church every Sunday so my husband and I could sing in the choir (and I sang next to his wife, Vickie). People commented on how great it was that my father would take care of Rob and Chris. No relative at all, just a very, very nice man. My sons still remember the Lopps with love and appreciation.

John loved his wife, Vickie, well - he was a caring and supportive husband to her. We also remember John's kindness to our son, Aaron. May John rest in peace and may his memory be eternal.
