To the Lazur Family. I am sorry to hear of John's passing. He was a classmate and friend while attending Marian High School but we lost touch after graduation. It has been many years since we as a class have seen John and often wondered what had happened to him. We missed him at our 60 th class reunion just this year.
May he rest in peace and be with so many of our classmates who have passed and are celebrating his coming with their own reunion while resting in the bosum of our Lord and Saviour.
