Not sure what to say?

Met John when I first moved to Columbus in 1977 from Washington state. Played soccer for John a couple of years. Good times with John, Bill Stewart and Mr. Meaney on the soccer pitch.

Kahn was one of my most important mentors. He taught me so much.

John was a wonderful colleague, mentor, and friend. So many fun rounds of golf in Columbus and Scotland. A man of honor and integrity. My condolences to Connie and family. Rest in peace John. Forever in my memory. Kiran

Always such a pleasure to see and chat with at HLCC. Never saw him with out a wonderful grin and so enjoyed his Scottish brogue.

We wish to extend our heartfelt condolences to John's family; we had the pleasure to know and work with John for many years. I remember John from my work at Cummins Engine Company where he used to emphasize the value of cash versus other financial measures of projects, and Margot remembers John and Connie from their many years of ballroom dancing practice. John taught us younger project managers many principles of sound financial management, and he was always helpful and liked to joke. with...

John inspired generations with his spirit, wisdom, and football intelligence. Always generous in sharing his gifts, John will be remembered off and on the pitch.

I was introduced to John by Joe Olmsted at the Surrey Inn in 1972. From there John & I became great friends. Without John´s help, guidance,generosity, friendship and excellent his working Knowledge I wouldn´t be here today with sadness in my heart and gratefulness knowing he is now in pease!

Sincere sympathy to Connie and family. It was always a pleasure to pursue our love of ballroom dancing with John and Connie in practice sessions or in dances at the Commons. May he rest in peace!
