Miss Helen and Nasca Family, we are deeply saddened by the death of Mr. John. We will miss him playing golf, pool and cards in North Carolina. I will meet him on the other side one day and we can share golf, pool, etc just like days before! Words can not describe how much we will miss him! God Bless You All!
