To the Costin family: As a little girl, I can remember "Johnnie" Costin coming to our house to pick up cleaning and yes he always announced his arrival with his whistling. He truly loved his work and the people he served. Condolences to the Costin family from the Earl Andrews Family.

Hello Costin family. I'm sorry to hear that John has passed. I'm Pat Holbrook the little boy who lived across the street from you on Lincoln street in Lorain. I read the obituary and feal the world would be a 100% better place if everyone just had 1/2% of John's ethics. [email protected]
