There are just so many adjectives that one could use to describe John; loving, kind, generous, funny and the list goes on. Personally, I can honestly say that I am a better person for having had the good fortune to have known him. John loved his family fiercely and did everything within his power to be present, provide for and protect each and every member of his "tribe". He was one of the hardest working men that I know and feel certain that he went above and beyond what was expected of him.
I will forever remember his sweet spirit and the loving looks that he gave his precious Lorrie and simply said "Yes, dear!" My heart is truly saddened that we no longer have him physically with us, but I know without a doubt that he is still watching over his family with pride in his eyes.
Our condolences to the entire Rubin family and our thoughts and continued prayers will be with you all.
John - this is not goodbye, it is simply a "so long for now, until we meet again."
We love you all - Blessings from the entire Whitehead family!!
