John Hodges and Dale Holdren in picture on 16 Jun 1990 for an AMEX Fam to New Orleans. We were former co-workers at Georgia-Pacific (American Express Travel). Two months before this trip, we had flown to Alaska. Both of us got upgraded to 1st class, from Seattle to Anchorage and arrived in Anchorage at 2 a.m. in the morning. John was the nicest guy and a good work travel companion. I just found out about your passing. You will be missed!

John
You´ve been on my mind this last week because your birthday was coming. The last two nights you visited me in my dreams and I could feel you had left us. I still held out hope with my call to you today. I'm so glad we had that long chat last month and was so proud of your courage and strength. I will miss you, my dear friend.

I met John several years ago. He'd been a wonderful friend, he is home now and healed. My thoughts and prayers are with his children, who he loved dearly and family and friends. Until we meet again my friend

I met John back in 2016 when I started attending STJ. He was so passionate about the youth as we served on the mentoring committee. John you have fought a great fight. May you rest in the safety of His arms. Until we meet again.

Hey John, it's still hard to believe you're no longer with us. Thanks for being a great father figure to me - you were a remarkable family man who always put others first. Your presence, wisdom, and kindness have left a lasting imprint on my life, and I will always treasure the memories we created together.
