Dear Sue and family,
We were sorry to learn John passed away. He was a very nice man and we have wonderful memories from our visits when you lived on Allens' Creek Road and our children were at Allendale Columbia. Our deepest sympathy and thoughts are with you, Patty Cox, Joanna, Marjorie and Cynthia.

Dear Sue, Terry and family,
I heard of John's passing and many fond memories were evoked. John, a good man, a family man, will be missed by many. It has been a while since our paths have crossed as I knew him through my work with Chrysler....and have long since changed jobs.....and lost touch with so many. May God keep him now and may you and your family enjoy your many memories.
Sincerely,
Rick Goodyear

Dear Sue and family,
We were very shocked and sorry to hear of John's passing.
John was the greatest person I ever worked for, and have many fond memories of our "Molye Days". He was always there for me, with advise and understanding. His professional wisdom certainly helped me throughout my life.
Rest in Peace, John.
