John, Thank you for being a true friend to me. You gave me some great advice about what to use on my skin. I am grateful for the skin products you gave me. They are definitely being used. I really admire and honor your work as a Consulting Pathologist and Medical Educator at the V.A. Hospital. While I didn't know you very well, you will be missed very much. Sincerely Your Friend, Ken

I will miss hearing about how you made a good size donation to the local indian casinos and how they always...

John,

You and your brother were so warm hearted and kind when Ben and I came to visit. I am so glad that I got to spend time getting to know you and your brother. I care alot for you and your family.
