My prayers and thoughts go out to his family. He was a great man who did so much for all the country musicians in New England and everywhere else. John was a friend of mine who I wish I saw before he passed. I was just asking about him a couple of months ago and wanted to see him the next time I came back to Boston. I'm so sorry it didn't happen. Thank you John for all you done through the years.

Nancy, please accept my sincere condolences. I know with the loss of your closest loved one all words are inadequate. It's a deep and personal loss that no one else can understand. I do hope all the outpouring of love for John can provide you with some comfort, for it is sincere.
Love,
Flo
