Cindy and family,

I was very sad to hear from Roscoe of your loss. I will always remember John as a great roommate at RIC. He was fun to be with and never lost for words. I can still remember his brand new Monte Carlo getting flooded in a puddle in Providence, trips to Haven Brothers at 2AM, and introducing all of us to the hampster ball. All of you will be in my prayers.
