Not sure what to say?

John was my agent and special friend. He was unique and very talented and really loved June and his pup whose name i'm trying to remember? Peaches?. Mike Murphy

Polly, Cam and Kevin...I am so sorry to hear about Uncle John's passing. As Chris wrote, so many indelible memories of Christmas Eves, our trips out to Lake Coeur d' Alene and the countless jumps off of the boat house into the lake. Such a fun uncle, fun aunt, fun cousins...fun family. God bless!

My sister June found her true soul mate in John. My love goes out to you kids and may time heal your broken hearts.

I loved you with all of my heart. I know that you are happy in heaven where all of our other loved ones are. You will be deeply missed, but I will see you again. I will always cherish the memories of time we spent together.

Well, after sitting here for darn an hour, thinking of all of us who have been touched by my Uncle John just too much for me to put into words. one word is simpler Love

Dear Polly, Cam and Kevin,

I'm so sorry for your loss. This echoes what Chris wrote, but my absolute favorite memories of my childhood are of Uncle John and Aunt June and the rest of you at the lake and at the holidays. I'll be thinking of his wonderful laugh tomorrow.

Dear Polly, Kevin and Cam,
So sorry to hear of your Dad's passing, our deepest sympathies. I will always remember him for his wit, humor and enjoyment of life.
Love, Your Cousin Greg and Shelley Lehman

Polly, Kevin & Cam, I had a call yesterday from Joe Cannon who told me about your fathers passing. He was the best. Always laughing and if I called him we would talk for hours and if he called me it was a relatively short conversation. I always asked about Sweetness. He was a terrific guy and will be missed!

Dearest Polly, Kevin, & Cam, We are so sorry for the loss of your dear father. He was such a wonderful Uncle and we will miss him so much. We all delighted in his story telling. He always brought us so much laughter and we so enjoyed our visits together. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
