Not sure what to say?

John had a great personality and was always ready to be of help to those around him. If there was a book on how to live your life well John must have discovered it when he came into this world. His life´s work leaves this world in better shape than he found it.

John was a mentor and friend to me on the Senator Percy staff. In fact, he's the one who first hired me and brought be into the fold. I will always appreciate the many opportunities and the doors he opened for me during those years. I owe him much and feel his loss very much, even all these years later. My best wishes to his family and friends. -Ken Ackerman

John was so generous and very supportive of his grand daughter´s education. He stoically and bravely faced every health care challenge he faced. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
