John Patrick Dilts

I am shocked to hear of John's passing, and very saddened. He was a great support to me when we jointly started the IPF Fund in the San Francisco Bay area. And even though our professional lives went separate ways, I have fond rememberance of our early beginnings and youthful optimism, as we tested our wings. I think very highly of John, hold his memory in high esteem. He will be sorely missed by all. I send warm regards to his family and friends.

sincerely,

I too was deeply saddened to learn of John’s passing. I didn’t have the honor of knowing John as an adult, but I had the pleasure of spending eight years (as did many of you) at St. Catherine of Sienna school in Burlingame. In reminiscing, let me say that many moments at our old alma mater were brightened and lightened by young Mr. Dilts. I know none of you needs assurances of his good humor, his chivalry and kindness, his general brilliance and even silliness, but here are some early...

Dear Dilts Family,
We were so shocked and saddened in learning of John's death. We are thankful that we were able to spend time with him when he stayed with us for family reunions in Winamac. He will be greatly missed by many.
In sympathy and love,
Rick and Becky

It is with tremendous sadness that our family has learned of John's death. We have known the Dilts family for 35+ years from our time together at St. Catherines/Serra and felt blessed to know and enjoy the entire family. John was one my brother Desmond's best friends and he was truly like another member of our family spending many fun times/vacations together while growing up. John's dad was full of life and we loved we he would cheer "Go big green" from the bleechers during St. Catherines...

Julia, I`m so sorry for your loss. I only met John once but he was the greatest guy to my family. I only hope God is with you during this time to help with all the pain.

We will miss his skill at deriving humor from even the most frustrating situations.
