I worked with John for many years at The Martin-Brower Company. He and I have had many many laughs over the years and I feel as if he were part of my family. Our condolences Lee, we just found out today - he was a great man.

John was my older cousin. He always had a smile and a joke. He was a cheerful, upbeat, caring person. He will be missed.

Cousin John used to give me rides in Uncle Ben's T-Bird, top down in the summer sun in Milwaukee. We'd go swimming in Aunt Joan and Uncle Babe's pool, and I'd supervise his two sons. Fond memories, and I can still picture John behind the wheel of a car he loved to drive.

Cousin John used to drive me around in Uncle Ben's T-Bird, top down in Milwaukee summers. We'd swim in Aunt Joan's and Uncle Babe's pool and I'd supervise his sons. Fond memories--and I can still picture him behind the wheel of a car he loved to drive.
