Dear Family and Friends of John,

I met John while working as a temp at CH&C, beginning in the fall of 2009 (through Temp Time). I enjoyed John's dry wit, fairness and the sense of trust that he seemed to have in me and my work. I miss our conversations and his chuckle.

My condolences to you all as you come upon the first anniversary of your loss.

Sincerely,

July 21, 2011

Please accept our condolences on your loss. John was a client of ours for years, and we just finally had an opportunity to meet him last Christmas. Aside from joking around with John, when he called to place a temp order with us, our most vivid memory was joining him in the kitchen while he was making a peanutbutter sandwich before court. He will truly be missed!

I am so sorry for your loss. John's office was across the hall from us. I could always count on him for some good-natured teasing and some great legal war stories. I will truly miss him.
