I want to extend my heartfelt condolences to all the family of the loss of John. I was a co-worker in Building 6 for several years. He was my friend and a very nice man. May he rest in peace. God Bless.

Darlene, so very sorry to hear of Uncle Jack's passing. He always had a kind word and I have such fond memories of him. His visits were always exciting; he'd have a quarter for all of us kids. At that age a quarter was a big deal and very much appreciated. May he rest in peace.
