John Reed Welch

Andria and family, we are so sorry to miss all the events celebrating John's life. He was important to us - family friend from our times at FOC then at First Cong - trusted physician, but mostly with Andria, just our friend, Andria, you tried to tie us into this service, but here it is at 11:00 Saturday thinking of you all even if our phone wasn't working. Let's keep in touch for you all are indeed special in our lives. Even without being there we are in our apartment at The Bridge...

It saddens me that I can't be there to celebrate John's life. I send my deepest condolences. I have many fond memories from my childhood of John, Andria and the Welsh Family.

So many wonderful memories of John are stored in my mind. He was a kind, generous of spirit, giving person. I am sorry not to be with you and your family today in celebration of his life, and hope you all find comfort in sharing the many wonders of his life.

We have so many fond memories on John. He was a wonderful neighbor, so friendly and kind. He will be missed.

So very sorry we cannot be with you to celebrate John's life. He meant the world to us and I loved him dearly. Hopefully I will be able to spend some time with you soon. Send my love to the kids. Your family and John hold such a special place in my heart!

We always loved seeing John come in the room. He just lite it up with his smile and "hey Dude!". He will always be remembered and truly missed.

Andria and family, I am heartbroken to hear this news . John was one of the best friends and mentor that I have ever had. I have been trying to reach you Andria but the mailbox is full -no wonder. Call me when you can . Love Marilyn

We will miss spending time with our wonderful friend sharing dinners out, skiing, and great conversations. May the love and support of friends and family carry you through your time of grief.

Thank you for your steadfast concern for the Glenmere neighborhood and for each and every patient at your ophthalmological clinic, including me and my children. Favorite memory: when Andrew's band played at his graduation and the cops showed up: Andrew's band played the riff from Hawaii Five-O. brilliant.
