Not sure what to say?

Margarett, My thoughts are with you. I was so sorry to hear about John's passing. He was a remarkable man. I so enjoyed the time I spent working with him at PWS. His integrity and philosophy were inspiring. Warmly, Susan Holcroft

We are so sorry to hear of John's passing. He was a kind and gentle man. Our son, Aaron has fond memories of spending time with his lovely children. Our thoughts are with you all.

so sorry to get this news. John was a wonderful parent who I enjoyed knowing through Portland Waldorf School. Many fond memories.

I AM SORRY I WON'T BE ABLE TO ATTEND, BUT I HAVE MANY FOND MEMORIES OF WORKING AND PARENTING WITH JOHN. HE ALWAYS SAW THE BEST IN PEOPLE AND THE SUNSHINE IN THE WORLD. BARBARA ANDERSEN

John still is a wonderful soul who will live in many people's memories for a very long time... intelligent, witty. I'll miss sitting next to him in church.

John is one of a kind...they broke the mold after him...

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know that my son, Duncan, enjoyed spending time with your family.

I'll never forget a wonderful dinner with John in Menlo Park, California at a sweet little resturant called "Late for the Train", as it was near the commuter train station. He urged me to start going to Operas. Sweet heart, deep soul, loving family. I'm glad I had the priviledge of getting to know him. My love and thoughts are with you Margaret and your beautiful children. Thanks for loving him so completely.

I am so glad that I knew John! Our children went to school together, and I have many fond memories of get-togethers. Any subject I could come up with, John had something intelligent and interesting to say. He had many stories about his life experiences which I always enjoyed. The last few times I saw him were at the ISEPP lecture series, where he was (as always) expanding his understanding of our universe and our species. He will be sorely missed -- our thoughts and best wishes to Margarett,...
