Not sure what to say?

While I knew John little, I grew up with Barbara at Silver Beach, our folks were close. John and Barb had my folks in for Thanksgiving dinner and I am always grateful for this. So sad in his passing, however he had a very outstanding career as an attorney, and most important, as a husband, father, grandfather, as well as friend to a lot. RIP ABB 541 688-6675

My dad. (John Louws) held John in high regard. He was a client of John. Dad has been gone for a few years now, but I remember the strong sentiment of respect that he had for John. Based on my experience with my dad and his judgement of character, John was a man of integrity who was appreciated by many.

My condolences to the family for the passing of a good man.
