Not sure what to say?

I had the pleasure to share several bike rides with John back in the early 80s. He was just getting into cycling, but it did not take long for him to become very passionate about it. Was always fun to ride with. My sincere condolences to his family.

John and I had high school memories. We both loved cars. We both went to the same college. Somehow, we went separate ways and never rejoined our friendship. We both lost as we shared the same career. When I heard of his passing & the two of never reconnecting, we have both suffered a loss. My best to his family so difficult to lose such an important part of their family. I have been saddened since. We had so much in common.

Laura and family, John will be missed by our family especially since we knew him when he did my mom and dad's taxes before my husband and I needed him to do ours and become a trustee for my daughter's trust. His astute mind and integrity will be missed at every Arden meeting. May God comfort you and the family.

John handled our firm´s (Corkery & Jones Benefits´ dba Moloney+O´Neill´s) financial statements over the the years and did a superb job. He was a man of integrity and of good character. It was a pleasure and a privilege to know him.

I met John when I poured wine at a Hospice for Life event in 2018. He and Laura became wine club members, along with Ernie and Vera Ewing. Such a nice guy. My sincere condolences to Laura and his family.

John was my accountant for many years. I always enjoyed our periodic update meetings. Since I´ve retired and moved to the far western part of Washington I had lost touch with him. I´m so sorry to hear of his passing. My heart goes out to his family and friends.
