Not sure what to say?

I still think of John often and what an inspiration he was to me. I can attest to how much he cared about others because he really helped me through some very dark professional times. I will never forget him.

Suzy & I were saddened to hear of John's battle with cancer and subsequent demise. Our thoughts and prayers are with Anna and the children. May you find peace in the knowledge that God promises a new body and NO MORE PAIN.

Dear Anna, Patti, Steve, Ed, and Annette,
I remember working with Anna at Holy Spirit Hospital and my daughter worked for your husband/father. My memories of you both are sweet and wonderful. Remembering when you attended our daughter's wedding and what a good time we had. Our lives were better because we knew you! Keeping you in my prayers during this difficult time. God bless you all.

Dear Mrs. Ford and family,
My first job in college was for our dear Mr. Ford. One of my fond memories was when he saved me from a falling file cabinet in the Science Division Office. All of my encounters with him spoke to his kindness and professionalism. A fine man. Reminded me in many ways of my Dad who we lost in April 2012. May they each rest in peace.

My prayers go out to the Ford family. My first job at HACC was through John. He was dedicated educator and a good man. Always looking for a way to help his students. May he rest in peace.

Anna A sad time for you and the family. We are put of town but yu are in our thoughts and prayers and our Mass here.

professional and overall friend. His honor to his family and Hacc family will always remain. May God bless his beautiful wife and family.
