Dear Pam, John, and Will,
Mary and I will always remember the fun times we had with you and J.P. both when you came to Princeton for the summer, and when we visited you in Auburn with Mary's mom. We remember J.P. as a fun-loving guy, who was intelligent, quick to laugh, and our conversations with him were always insightful and thought--provoking. We will keep those memories close in our hearts forever.
With all our love and heartfelt sympathy.

Dear Pam and family,
A beautifully written story of a cherished life, with so many details that I did not know. It's so hard to believe that I have lost yet another of my Okie dads. JP was one of the greatest, and I will truly miss him. Much love and many hugs to you all,
