I know Mr. Banks and my father were great friends, going back to their childhood days in Portland Heights. I wish you much peace. -Elizabeth Sabin Rouffy, daughter of John Sabin

It was always a pleasure serving him his lunch and breakfast at the Ackerly.Whenver I saw him outside enjoying the weather I would go talk to him and I really enjoyed our conversations I have read 3 of his books and now I'm reading them again.. I will miss our talks..may he rest in peace. My condolences to his family he was a wonderful man and will be missed. Mary Beard Server at the Ackerly at Timberland
