This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, John Moll who was born in Illinois on November 11, 1988 and passed away on December 11, 2004 at the age of 16. We will remember him forever.
On November 11, 1988 the earth was graced with the birth of a wonderful boy. However, his mother was unable to care for him, and placed him for adoption. On March 17, 1989 this wonderful boy was united with the Moll family that consisted of Matthew, Barbara and Brian, who was not quite 2 years old. They named him John Eric Moll. John was a Godsend to the family, and brought joy to all. Brian and John quickly became close friends. By the time John was 6 years old, it was very apparent he was a special person with a gifted talent in all he did. He was a honor roll student and gifted athlete. At Hammerschmidt grammar school from first grade through fifth grade, John set at least one school record in track each year. At Westlake Middle School, John was the point guard on the basketball team that went 40-0 over their 7th and 8th grade seasons. In baseball John was a member of the Lombard Thunder baseball team that won the CABA 13 year-old World Series in Cincinnati. During that World Series, John batted .500 while batting leadoff and played an outstanding center field. Cincinnati was a good city for John, as his Firebirds soccer team played in the Queen City Tournament two years in a row, going undefeated both years, compiling a 10-0 record.
Besides sports, John had an incredible heart, and was always putting others before himself. He never got a big head, and never wanted the spotlight. He was a genuine person, and he always had a SMILE on his face. John has touched many lives in his short time. He will never be forgotten, he will always be missed, and John will always be loved.
We Love You Johnny!

Writings by Johnny Basketball Player By John Moll Age 12
Can any of yawl ball out there? I didn't think so, but I certainly can because I think God gave me this gift and I think that gift is basketball because noone can ball better than Moll can. See, it rhymes so it has to be my gift. I picked this costume because you make a lot of money, which then equals to stretch Benz, big mansion, diamonds, one of my favorites of why I like this costume is that you get all of the fine and pretty women. Because when you play as good as I do all the women will be all over you, just like they're all over me right now. Then when I don't know what to do with my money anymore I will give a lot of it to charity. That is what I like most about being a basketball player and that is that you help others that need help and you become a better man.
4th Grade Writings by John Moll
Brother Brother, Black brother gets hot when I am on his nerves
Brother, cold when he walks home from his bus stop
Sounds loud, sounds hurt sounds funny
Tastes like me and every other person human flesh
Smells like cologne
Feels soft and bony
Looks like a great brother to me!
Makes me a happy person
Feelings I feel sad when my dad yells at me and my mom yells at me.
I feel sad when my brother is mean, and when my dad won't take me anywhere.
I feel angry when I have to go to band and when I get a bad grade on a test.
I get nervous when I have a big test, or a big basketball game, or a big soccer game, or a big bowling game.
I love when my dad goes out and buys me stuff.
I love when my mom and dad don't yell at me, and when my dad takes me places.
I love when I don't have to go to band, and when I get an A on a test.
I love when I win my basketball game, or soccer game, or bowling game.
Every Day Every day my brother puts his underwear on my head and opens the door so the dog can come in and lick my face.
Every day I walk downstairs to eat breakfast and every boring day I go to school, but the only good thing is that every now and then I get an A in school.
School There are only three reasons why I like school.
First reason is if I didn't go to school I wouldn't have as many friends.
Second reason is you wouldn't learn anything.
Third reason is you wouldn't have any time with your friends.
Match My brother and a pair of socks match because they both stink.
Bill Clinton and my dog match because they're both sicko.
I match up with myself because I am the coolest person in the world!
