Not sure what to say?

Fourteen years has not erased your memory John; I think of you often. You were a good neighbor and a great Brueggers coffee buddy.

I can still hear his voice, and more importantly, I can still hear his laughter. Miss you, my friend.

We will carry on...

What more can be said. John was our friend. There is nothing that can be said here that can describe how important John was in our life. He was the beacon that the crew followed while trying to pull out the truth about the Liberty attack. We were so proud to build the library here in Grafton and have John be such an important part of the effort. We will not say goodbye John, just see you in the future. Make sure you have some of those old movies we each liked.
Love and miss you,

Anchors Away, My Friend...May you rest in peace. I know you're making the angels around you smile because you had a way of doing that everytime you met someone new. May God bless your family and friends and all who remember you. You will be truly missed.
