To the family of John Straw

I worked with John when he worked for Medicare and we became good friends, he was a great guy and I remember how proud he was when he bought his home and he had a party with mostly people from the office.
I can't find the words when I heard that he was ill and a short time later he passed away, I wish I knew earlier since I work in the hospital he was a patient and could have spent some time with him. I just want. to say your son and brother was a good man.
