John RITCHEY II

John was a good friend of my father's and an inspiration to me. I met him first when I worked for the same company as an intern with him and my dad. He was always kind, and offered to take me skiing with his family! I'm sorry we never had the opportunity to hit the slopes together. He is very much missed.

To John's Family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I had the privilege of working with and getting to know John at CGI. He was a man of great integrity and a dear and trusted friend. Will keep you in my prayers.
With Deepest Sympathy, Kim Cobb

Beth - Marty and I send our love and prayers to you and your clan. John served in a manner we all should emulate...selfless, persistent, enthusiastic.

Well done, John. Call out the cadence; keep us in step.

Beth I so very sorry and send you big hugs and prayers......

This news brought great sadness. John and Beth were a great couple that I recall back in our early days at Fort Carson. Later, as Colonels, we crossed paths again. He will be missed.

John was a true Quiet Professional that you hear or read about from military journals and stories from the heat of battle. A great classmate and a fine example of the human spirit.
