Steve, I was sorry to hear about John. Just wanted to take this time to let you know how much I enjoyed working with John at FFTF and the years you kept me going with your chiropractic practice.

Steve and Pam. Im sorry about the loss of your father. I have many memories at the Forsberg home. Your dad and mom were always nice to me at church and on Chestnut. I hope both of you are doing well. Melanie and I moved to Arizona to be near my parents. Ill make sure they know as I know they always liked your dad and mom and would want to know.
