I remember uncle John and Aunt Ann from Marktown days! I often wonder about the rest of the family. Maybe one of you can drop me a line.

We are so sorry for your loss. Uncle John was the last of the "old guard". We first cousins need to stay in touch!

Grandopa, you know you were nothing short of my Superhero. I'm so grateful for the gift of time I was able to spend with you enjoying simple pleasures...watching The Wheel, making you chocolate malts and working on your crosswords together. Soft spoken, but strong willed, you set a standard for kindness, patience and compassion. I will treasure every memory I have with you and Granny, and hope you are with her again.

Chuck and Dennis, Sorry to hear about Uncle John passing. I think of you two quite often and wonder how you are doing. May his memories fill your hearts with much joy. Your cousin, Pat Pollack Lushbaugh
