John

I have been a little lax in profiling my family as I have planned to do. I would now like to profile John.  He was born August 10, 1967.

John is my oldest boy. He is a treasure. He is truly unique. Because he is different, he was picked on a lot at school. But he kept up his spirits and uplifted many others. When he was two years old, he wandered off and was gone for a while and scared us half to death. Another time I could not find him, he was asleep under a bunch of blankets on the floor.  He loves lights and tulips and electronic devices. When we took our Christmas tree down one year, he cried. He wanted the lights to shine all year. He used to change the lights on the tree over and over and we ended up having to nail the Christmas tree to the floor to keep it from tipping over because he was always rearranging things.

John is dependable. If he says he will do something, he will and will go the extra mile.  His memory is his outstanding asset. Especially dates. If you are trying to remember a date of something even as far back as 30 years ago, John is the one to ask. He may be a little OCD but because he is, you can bet that you will never have to worry about things when you are away from home and he is caring for the place.  He does not do well with stress though. It is best that he keep himself free from it as best as he can. John loves to eat and you don't have to worry if you can't eat all your food because John will take care of that.

John works in the grocery business and has for over 10 years. All the people he has worked for say he is the best worker they ever had. Even customers have sent letters of appreciation to him and his manager.

John has accomplished a lot in his life. An LDS mission, putting up with bullies, Jr College and his marriage to Kathy Jones. He is a wonderful son, a good and trustworthy boy and I love him very much.
