I, too, remember John from my days of growing up in Braintree. We would see John walking all over town, all day long - unless, of course, he was working in the yard of his beloved home. He always had a kind greeting for me; he was a true gentleman.
Rest in Peace, John Snow.

To a dear old friend from long ago..
"Mr Snow" was my neighbor in Braintree. From the age of 12, he used to come to my house, knock on the door, and would have some little toy/trinket, and would say to whoever answered my door.."This is for the girl". He never remembered my name. He was a quiet, private man, who walked to the store, cleaned his yard, and always a gentle wave to us neighbors. I moved away almost 30 years ago, but have never forgotten him. God Bless you "Mr. Snow"..xo
