Condolences to the Wuest family. I met JR through my marriage. My heart aches for he was an extraordinary man. He stayed in touch after the loss of his mother. He always showed love and concern. Our daily talks through his most recent health crisis kept me close to his strength, courage and inspiration to others. His love for Prancer was a testimony to his boundless dedication to animals. I always looked forward to his calls sharing  memories and good advice. He planned on coming with Prancer to visit in Michigan this year. Without him, life has changed forever. He made a huge difference in my life. Thank you JR for gift of giving. You made my life better.❤️

I first met John in 1967 when his family moved in across the alley from me in Chicago,my parents quickly took a liking to him as well as his parents to me. We have been lifelong friends since,we always stayed close friends and worked together at American Airlines for many years, he was always there for me if I ever needed anything . On the exterior he may have looked like a rough sort, but underneath was a man with a gentle heart and caring soul. I am heartbroken by his passing and will miss him dearly. May he rest in peace 

My sincere sympathy to the Wuest family. 

JR, your Sunday phone calls and updates on how things were going, will be missed too.✌️ 😇

I've meet John at American Airlines where we worked at real nice person" want to give my condolences to the wuest family.

I've known JR since I was 15 when I met him at the Axle Roller Rink. I he was always known there as Beast, we all considered him as our guardian angel. He was always there for anyone
no matter what it was. Little did we all know that he was waiting for my sister to turn 18 so he could marry her. He then became part if our family. Even though their marriage didn't last forever JR was still always part of the family and I was proud to call him my brother in law. I will miss him terribly. I know he will always be our Guardian Angel.
