JOHN D. PARARAS

Good Lord! Seven years already!

Jan, I'm so sorry to hear about John. He was the kindest, most even-tempered, fair boss I've ever worked for and I still look back on my time at Scheduling Systems as the best job I've had. 22 years ago he gave me the single best piece of life advice I've ever received, which still guides me on a nearly daily basis. "Marti" may have moved across the country and left SSI, but what she learned while there remains with her to this day.
I'm sure he had similar influence on everyone who knew...

Please accept my deepest condolences, Jan, family and Takis. I got very sad, when I heard the news! I wish you to find the courage to deal with your great loss, May he rest in peace!

My thoughts are with you,
