I still have vivid memories of Ann and John at the house in Litchfield, when there to take them to NYC...Ann with her wonderful bohemian type skirts and smile that was always bright and John patiently waiting. My husband Rick and I miss them and are reminded of that every time we pass by the house.

The San Francisco/Lafayette/Carmel Keelers send their deepest condolences. John was a very kind person. We remember fondly spending time in Litchfield with John, Anne and the girls one summer back in the 1970's.
