Pat,
You are in my prayers. John was one of the first kids I met when I moved to Edwardsville. He was and will be missed at our '59 class reunions. He is at peace.

So sorry to hear of John's passing. We were friends in High School. John loved to dance we would all go dancing at Collinsville Park. I can see him dancing how.
