A true gentleman who will be truly missed

Joyce and family

My sincere condolences to you and your family. As you know John and I were close friends throughout the years at SSPP where we lived only 1/2 block apart. After WWII we saw a lot of each other when traveling together for classes at SLU and then family visits with your family and ours and a few after we moved to Florida. You'll always be remembered as the Maid of Honor for Margaret at our wedding, Nov 20, 1948.

I know you occasionally informed me of John's condition and I hope he had a peaceful passing. My daily prayers will include those for John and you and your family.

May the Good Lord Bless John, you and your family.

Again, with sincere condolences.
