My sincere condolences for your loss. I had the privilege to work with John at TUV. He was one of the most professional people in the auditing business. John will be deeply missed, and his smile and gentle way will never be forgotten. God Bless, may you find peace in the beautiful memories.

To John's Family, I had the privelege of working with John on several of his consulting projects. I enjoyed our many trips to Owens Corning in Newark Ohio. He knew how to help companies and the people he worked with. When a client was using TUV I would ask if John was available to conduct the registration audit. Management Teams valued his input and the way he conducted audits. A great man and the ASQ Boston Section will open our First Meeting in 2014 with a moment of silence in recognition for John who was an ASQ Fellow. Peace be with you. Theresa McCarthy

Dear Mary and Family,

Words simply can not adequately express (or comfort) your sense of loss, so may I focus upon the man, the legacy, and the grieving process for a moment.

During the calling hours and the funeral, there will be so many cherished memories that callers will share. Drink these in deeply, to show and allow for reflection facets of him that you may not have been aware of.

One such example was the multi generational influences that occur within the business world. in 1986 I was a young engineer when I took an Auditing course where john was my instructor. Sharing a love and passion for improvement and systems, I soon found myself in professional assessment. Having worked with John for many years at TUV - we had a wonderfully unique occassion to audit together with one of my certified quality auditor protoge's. In that experience - what I had gained in learning from John had become rooted in me and then shared with others. It is my belief that the third individual has since gone on to teach and share even further, and so it goes.

John always had a pleasant smile and courteous demeanor. We shared discussions far beyond the workplace, and he is a treasured friend and man of impact upon my professional career who has, and will be sorely missed.

Mary, it was so nice to chat with you occassionally, and please know that we will continue to think of you all in our prayers.

Charlie and Jackie Clark.

PS - Jackie received her Liver transplant on January 1 2014.
