Robert,
It's hard to find the words that might bring Suk and you comfort at this time of loss but perhaps just knowing that so many of your Brother Rats are thinking of you with sympathy and understanding will somehow help give you strength at this difficult time. We wish you comfort now, peace soon, and warm memories forever. May these memories of John bring peace to your heart. With deepest sympathy in the bonds,
Snookie and Marla Parker

Many prayers in a time of such sorrow. I pray that friends and family can find happiness in remembering the good times with Johnny. He was definitely the life of the party.. A good man, with a big heart.
A great life lost too soon, so tragic and undeserving... Thank you Johhny for being there for my brother like you did. You don't come across friendship like that but once, maybe twice in a lifetime if you're lucky.. I know you will still be there, watching over him. Hopefully you're in a good place now with lots of fast cars!! xoxoxoxo

I have agonized over what I could say to my friend and classmate and his lovely wife to ease their pain and carry some of their burden.... but there is none other than to say you are both in the hearts and prayers of our whole class. Your loss is felt by each and every one of us. We hope that your beautiful memories sustain and bring you comfort during this very difficult time. Know that you are not alone.
