John will be missed by anyone who knew him. I have worked with John since 1992. He always called me Sister Hiers.( because I taught Sunday school) and I would say, hello Brother John. He was always willing to help the staff and take on extra just to help. Heaven has another wonderful person. My prayers are with his family.

- Theresa Hiers George, Savannah, GA

The world lost a great guy but, heaven gained one. So sorry I didn't get to chat with you one more time. I've always enjoyed working with you and I quote you all the time "I'm not here to make friends". We'll John like it or not you did. R.I.P brother. God speed.

- Bob Graham, Savannah, GA

Mokray we're already really missing you. Why is it always that the good die young? I've never met your nephews but as much as you talked about them I'm sure they are missing you pretty bad also. They certainly had a great role model in you, and some wonderful memories to carry with them in their hearts. I've told my boys stories about you and your nephews and they always get a good chuckle. My heart breaks today for your family's loss, but we all know God has a special spot for you already. You'll be forever in the hearts and memories of so many. RIP friend, until we meet again...

Deepest Sympathy

- Jack Weathers, Savannah, GA

I have only been fortunate enough to know John J and Mel for a little over a year. Anyone who has ever met Mokray knows it only took him about 5 seconds to wrap around your heart and become one of the funniest, honest, kindest friends you could ever hope to have. The profession of nursing has lost a rare gift losing Nurse Mokray. I am deeply saddened losing my friend. I'm comforted knowing he's likely watching over all of us and being a protective source of love and light and probably getting the Angels into some mischief the Mokray way.

John was a great nurse and role model, I will not forget him. I came to know John while I was teaching at BC and he was working as the school nurse. He was a great role model for the Cadets and had a fabulous sense of humor; he never failed to help a student and influenced many with his integrity. He was also one of the nurses when my mother was recovering from surgery at St. Joe's. He will be sorely missed.

John was always entertaining me with many philosophical conversations over the years about work, life, his nephews, his dog, & co-workers ;) Because I was his boss he never called me anything but Ms. Freeland. He was a true fighter and gave everything his all! His patients & St. Joseph's hospital all loved him and will never forget him! Our hearts are broken but faith is strong & we know God has got this! Prayers to all John's family, Melanie and the multitudes he touched!
