John Hand knows how Mandee and I feel about him. It's hard to see him move on. He embodies so much that we admire and love. He's done everything we've ever asked of him while working as CFHSV. He came as a teenager, became a coach, a man, a dear friend, and he's moving on. Mandee and I often pray and hope that Holden grows up to show the authenticity that John Hand has. He's genuine, grounded, and rooted in faith and integrity. As good as a coach and athlete as he is we'll be missing the person. Thanks for everything Hand

John Hand is truly a unique young man. He is smart yet understanding, a talented athlete yet humble, and above all he is a kind and loyal friend. I adore JOHN Hand and will miss his dear, sweet, personality every day. I pray he will return to Huntsville soon. It's a selfish prayer, I know, but it's a sincere one. He has touched so many of us in ways that make us all very grateful to know him, but very sad to see him move away. I love you JOHN Hand. ?

John, I have really enjoyed getting to know you since you came back to CFHSV. I have enjoyed coaching along side you and learning from someone who is truly great at what they do. I have enjoyed chasing you in every WOD we do, you have helped me become a better athlete. I am lucky to call you a friend and you will truly be missed more than you know. Best of luck to you in your new profession. Don’t be gone too long.

John, words cannot express the love, gratitude and thanks I feel for you and for all that you've done for us, CFHSV and our community through the years. Nathaniel and I have spent so many nights sitting at our dinner table talking about how much we respect you and just how thankful we are for our friendship. You are truly one of kind, always true to yourself, always standing up for what it is right, and always the first to lend a helping hand. The care and concern you show for others is a testament to your character, and a quality we have admired since you were a teenager. We hope and pray that the road ahead for you is full of nothing but happiness and joy! We love you and will miss you deeply John Hand!

John is the absolute best. Great guy, great coach , and shockingly strong. He will be greatly missed and difficult to replace. The coaching bar is high at CF HSV. I'm sorry to see him go but expect big things for him.

Don't go John Hand! Your witty, dry, honest sense of humor has kept us laughing for years and your coaching and performances are always stellar.

John there is nothing I can say that has not already been said, and it's all so true. I was sad the day I learned you planned to move and have been dreading this day for a long time. I wish you well and have no doubt you will be successful wherever you go. Please remember there is always a place for you here, if you decide you miss home ?

Hey, I'm pretty sure we need accountants here in Huntsville too, man! Well, if nothing else, you'll be the most badass accountant any of us know. You'll be sorely missed, friend.

John, you've made a positive impact on a lot of lives at CFHSV with your solid coaching ability and your loyal friendship. Work hard in your new career, make some money, and know that you have the gift to be able to circle back to coaching, should your path ever lead you there. Hope you visit soon!

John is an incredible guy! I've known him since he was a toddler and the guy never ceases to amaze me!

@John, I'm proud to be your uncle and definitely going to miss your encouragement and great instruction! Proud of what you accomplished in CrossFit and good luck in the next chapter of your career. I look forward to you visiting home so we can dream up and attempt ridiculously brutal WODs.

John, you are one of the best people I've ever known. I didn't experience your coaching much since I'm always in the back, but you ALWAYS came back to say hello and ask what I was up to. This among many things makes you stand out. You stand out as the single best coach I've ever experienced. I pray for your future and yet I know that you can do anything you want in life because of who you are. Sad to see you go my friend. Good luck!

I do not like good byes... I have made more friends at Crossfit Huntsville than I have anywhere else. I have left crossfit Huntsville three times and it doesn't get any easier. I really appreciate all the comments. I doubt my eulogy will have nearly as many kind things to say. I will miss all of you! I will definitely be visiting often. Please stay in touch!

Kim G says:

October 4, 2017 at 3:37 pm

I will truly miss John. He is one of a kind in humility and character and his coaching is always on point. Who knows.... maybe accounting will not suit him after all! I wish you the best and hope you visit often! God bless you!
