Not sure what to say?

I still miss you and all the fun Ron and I had with you and Gina. RIP.

Still missing you John! And tomorrow is the anniversary of Ron´s death. February is the cruelest month.

John, I was just looking at the photo of you and Gina at Cirque du Soliel, where we had such a wonderful time. One of these days, we will again. Love from Sue Tulis

Hi Dad;
Wherever you are right now, I just wanted to let you know that Gina is joining you. I miss you.
Love, Steve

I still miss you a lot and think of you often. You and Gina were very special to me and to Ron.

I just learned that "Captain" Hook has left the building and I wanted to add my voice to the others about a life well lived. John took me under his wing when I was a young lawyer at the ABA Property Committee meetings and we played tennis in the Committee tournaments, sometimes comprised just of the two of us. A truly remarkable, gracious man and I extend my heartfelt condolences to Gina.

John, you still have to get the ball high up in the air wherever you are to drive that ace over...

Sue: Thanks so much for your kind words. I was one of my dad's biggest fans and will always miss him. Love, Steve

Martin: I appreciate your note. He was a great man that was well respected in his field. I know so many others will miss him very much. Warm regards, Steve

Steve,
I will miss John so much. He and Gina were wonderful friends to me after Ron died, and to both of us before, for so many years. I first met John when I was around 19 years old. I just can't believe he is gone, he was timeless in his devotion to his profession and his family. He will be greatly missed.
Love,
Sue Tulis

Amazing man and a life well lived.
