Dear Mary and Alexandra,
What do you say to the people who have been a second family over all these years? Craig and I miss John daily, the memories of him bring tears and laughter all at the same time. (Mary, he knows all about the boat coming unhitched from the truck and landing on the side of the Northway now! I can hear and see him laughing at it and us!) I think we all know he'll always be looking out for you and Alexandra and Ella and all of his family...that's just the way John...

Dear Mary,
Words can not express how I felt when I heard of John's passing. My fondest memories of my years at Command always include him. He was truly one of a kind and will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Mary, I'm so sorry for your loss, but I know you are thinking of the laughs and the tears and all that you shared with John. You were both so generous to us and shared these things with all of us. I have great memories of John, when we had offices next door to each other in the hangar in ALB and he was always "going to a meeting with the tower" to go see you and Alexandra for dinner. He kept that smirk on his face when he told his crazy fun stories and we all got to join in the joke. ...

Mary,
I'm shocked and deeply saddend by John's passing. John was one of the greatist pilots i've every flown with. The nights at the Woronock we spent together after long days out on the line were the greatist. He was a true professional and an absoulte pleasure to be around. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Fly West John.

Mary,
My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your daughter. I have wonderful memories of John who brought a smile to everyone at Command Airways when we didn't have much to smile about. What a kind and gentle soul he was.

Mary-I've been thinking a lot this week about the gift you and John gave so many us-the gift of so many smiles and laughter. Seeing all the people at the wake whose lives you both have touched, I could see it coming back in their memories, their smiles and laughter. I can think of no greater tribute to a great man who i was so fortunate to have known. Please know that my thoughts and prayers join so many others for you and Alexandra; know that you remain in our hearts and thus will never walk...
