I was just recently informed of John's passing.
I knew John for many years but lost contact when he retired. I was not aware of his illness and am saddened by his demise. He was a caring, considerate physician who was respected by all. We shared many patients and discussed life's issues frequently in the physicians lounge at MMC. God Bless him, he was a good man.

Deepest sympathy to Lillian, Nick, and all of the Kucan family. I remember John well from "the soccer days". He was the nicest guy you could ever meet.
