Margaret and John's Family,
Our Turf industry will surely miss John, John was our Lebanon sales rep and friend to Fisher and Son Company. With John's help, we grew our lebanon business many times over with his support. John was a gentleman, a professional and a knowledgeable resource. He also never vocalized his pain or complaints of his illness. In many ways, we can look to John as a role model.

Dear Margaret, Betsy and Family,

I hope you can find some comfort in knowing that all of John’s golf buddies loved him and respected him. He was a good man, a great friend, and a true gentleman to all of us. We will all miss John very much and we will think of him and share memories of him often. He will not be forgotten, I assure you.

I am proud to say that John Farrell was my friend.

John,

I will never forget the many rounds of golf that we played together over the years. And I will always miss the evenings that you and I spent together on the range and on the practice green, doing more chatting than practicing. I will treasure those memories.

For as long as I play golf, every time I hit a good tee shot, I will hear your voice say to me as you so often did… “Just like a tour pro.”

Thank you for your friendship and for the times that we spent together. When we meet again, please hold a spot for me in your foursome.

Margaret, Betsy and John`s Family,

I am sorry that I have not met most of you but I need to tell you what you already know. John was a truly great guy and as he made friends with everyone that he met he also made a difference in their lives. It was impossible not to feel better when you saw him smile. It was from the heart and it lit up his face. He was also the perfect "Irish" gentlemen who lived life with style and class. He will be missed by all of his friends in the turfgrass industry but he will never be forgotten.
