Not sure what to say?

Tanner, Carrrie and Mary Margret, I so very sorry to learn of JT´s passing. He was such a great guy. I will miss him. He made Houston a better place. He loved and was so proud of you.

I knew John in Aruba. My family lived next door to the Hendricksons in Aruba. Trish was my childhood friend. We spent a lot of time together also with Eric Garber.

John! We have known each other since first grade in Aruba. Your alias in Miss Gallicani's Spanish class was Juan Borbon, something we never forgot. Condolences and huge virtual hugs to all.

I know JT through my association with Kathleen Ellsberg who was JTs corporate # 2. We talked a few times but Kathy told me about JT as business man and giving human. Kathy loved him and will sorely miss him
