I was extremely sorry to hear of John's passing. He gave me my first position in a financial institution and I rose to Vice President at Elversn National Bank which was quite a responsible position for a young man in a small bank with not many vice presidents. I am now a senior vice president at a large finacial institution, but I will never forget my friends at Elverson National Bank and especially John Jacobs.

John was running Elverson National Bank when I first met him and they gave me a loan that was my "Big Chance" to enter the health club field. They helped me grow into a $10 million business with their help and support. I eventually even became the proxy for all of the shareholds at the annual meetings! Thank you, John, for helping me suceed

Mildred,
Checking today's Reading Eagle we were sorry to learn of John's death on Saturday. You have our sympathy and our prayers.

John was a close good friend and fellow board member of The Elverson National Bank. Where he joined his Grandfather, Earl K. Witwer, who was President and the ultimate "Country Banker". John served as the Bank's Cashier before joining the Board. They worked together in the OLD bank at #1 Park Avenue, Elverson,Pa. John's brother, Richard, was an Office Manager. John will be remembered and missed. May God bless John and his family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
