To the Family: I am so sorry for your loss. I did not know John personally but as a member of St. Lawrence parish, I always saw him at church with a smile on his face. I appreciate his dedication to the church, especially helping with the computer on Sunday because I would had been lost without him keeping up!:) I pray that God gives you comfort in the memories you have of the years you shared with this great man! Peace to you all.
