It was our pleasure to serve John weekly for the past three years with shopping, laundry, cleaning, friendly visiting and transportation through our volunteer program. All the volunteers enjoyed his stories, sarcasm, banter and quick wit. He had a big, forgiving heart and understanding of how people cope and care. He will be missed.

Dad I am going to miss you so much. I will miss all your stories and your funny sense of humor. You were an amazing father to me. You were the best papa. You were the best father in law to my husband. We were lucky to have you in our lives. Please keep watching over us.
