Marlegne, I am so sorry to hear of John’s passing. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him at Alice Ink, and always considered him my friend, though we did lose touch in the past couple of years. May you and the kids and his family find peace through this difficult time. If I can do anything for any of you, please reach out to me. God Bless
