Not sure what to say?

John worked with me for about 15 years, getting legislation through the House and Senate and signed into law for public safety, handling litigation (which we won), ogtaiing support from the While House and many other issues. He was not only our attorney, but became my friend. He even flew to LA for my retirement. One could not ask for a more loyal, friendly, professional friend and attorney. Bud Wenke, Captain (ret), LA County Sheriff's Department

For about 14 years John worked with me, representing my law enforcement agency, first - to obtain Federal legislation to give public safety preference in the assignment of frequencies and then with the FCC to obtain critical channels. He was the best - there wasn't any one that could come close to what John did for us. And when I retired from law enforcement, John flew to LA to attend my retirement. I can't find words to truly say what a wonderful, talented, honest, dedicated man he was. ...

My sympathies. His work for APCO will be remembered. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord.

It was a pleasure to know and work with John. God Bless you.. Mike Hogan

My sympathy to the Lane family.
Chris Phelps, APCO International Staff

I represented the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Departent in Washington DC, and John was our attorney. Not only was he a fantastic counsel, winning every issue he took on for us, but he was a personal friend. Honest, trustworthy, knowledgeable, is an understatement. He will truly be missed. May God Bless you John.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
Indiana Chapter of APCO

My deepest sympathy to the Lane family on the loss of a truly great gentleman. John was a mentor of mine early in my career through APCO. I am forever grateful for all that he gave in the interest of public safety. God Bless
