Not sure what to say?

Great guy and co worker. We shared the same birthday>

John visited me in a dream the other night. He was smiling. I last saw him at my house warming. He was a car guy and my friend. I miss him. He was a very kind man.

I'm so sorry for your loss, I knew John from the DeLind Gallery and he was always such a delight to talk with and have a glass of wine with. He will be missed.

I will miss John, my condolences to his family. John and I shared many conversations about art, I joined him at many shows and auctions, he was very knowledgable, never stopped reading, studying and learning about his artistic passion. He was a good man.

Our deepest sympathy to John's family and friends. He was a great co-worker and kind man.

We are sadden to learn of John's passing. He was a good guy and we wish his family and friends comfort in his passing. God bless him.

My deepest sympathies to John's family and friends. It's been many years since I knew John while we were in graduate school at UW-M. He was a delight to know back then and I have fond memories of our time together.

John was a good guy. We spent many hours talking about art, auctions, and shows. His collection was quirky and included many outstanding paintings, lithographs and sculptures with a special love of Antuque French Posters. John was a special friend of Dennis Pearson of Beastie fame. We are saddened by the news of his passing.

My condolences to John's family and friends. I worked with John at DOC (and in fact took over his office space when he retired, where I am writing this message from). John was quite a character and brought a lot of laughs to our workplace. He has not been forgotten! Wishing you all peace and comfort.
