Not sure what to say?

His legacy lives on in my business and in my life. John told me to help others with what he taught me. I do. A lot. His gift is there gift. God bless John.

John continues to move me to action even today. May God hold John in the palm of His hands forever. Thank you John.

In the summer of 2020 I had massive spiritual memories of John. As kids we spent a lot of time together as we lived one block apart. We attended Rose City Park grade school and Grant High School.

Every once in awhile as you go through life you are fortunate to meet someone who is willing to come along beside you and intentionally help you both professionally and personally. John Sauer was that kind of person. I knew John for over 30 years and always appreciated his insights into people (including me!), his wit, storytelling and direct but caring manner.
