To the many people who knew John J.Scully, we thank you for expressions of sympathy.John was very private man, always a gentleman, and he was always very good to me. I remember when I was little the walks we took, games we played and the stories we talked about. He was always there for his sister and I. As private as he was I will miss him, and I would like to thank everyone who knew and helped John. He's out of pain and at peace. Thank you again to all who knew John.
