My sincere condolences to the entire Galbraith family during this difficult time. I worked with John at Western Airlines and we had a lot of fun in those days surfing and playing softball. Even though I never met his father I can see he was a tremendous individual knowing the quality person John was. God Bless you all.

sincerely,
