My heart is very heavy right now as John has always been my mentor since being hired in the DoD (DCAS) sector in 1985. Please know that I'll carry John in my Rosary prayers along with your entire family. Further, next donation to the Basillica Memorial Fund will request they pray for John & your family the last nine days of this and every month henceforth I ask for.

I am so very sorry to learn of Jack's passing. I will always remember our last round of golf together this Spring because he was still hitting the ball farther than me even though he was so ill. He was a good friend, and I will miss him very much.
