A grandfather is someone

with silver in his hair

and gold in his heart.

I will miss and I will always love my grandfather..

John was my brother-in-law for 53 years. The best menory that I have of him is the trip that he and I shared by canoeing down the Au Sable River and enjoying all the nature and cooking out during that week. John will be missed and good bye to a friend.

Please accept the condolences from the entire Chopp family; we have been friends for over 20 years. John will not be forgotten.

I'd be honored to help someone with the paperwork.
