My deepest, deepest sympathy in the passing of John. I have so many memories of John and his brother Bryan as we Kurowski girls were neighbors on Leland. We had so much fun together in our youth and not just one memory stands out, there are many. Always good laughs and good times. Bryan, my thoughts are with you and all your family. You are in my thoughts and prayers and forever in my heart my friend.
