My family and I want to express our deepest regrets and sympathy for John's family. Our son Christopher was a student of John's and we just found out about his passing. Know that he had such a positive effect on our son and all those students who's lives he touched. He loved those kids and was always there for them. We counted him also as a friend and this has deeply saddened us.
Knowing that he is standing in the presense of a loving God brings us joy, though he will be missed. May God comfort you and ease your grief at this time. As much as John was loved here on earth, his father in heaven loves him even more.
Mickie, Albert and Christopher Olivares
