Janet, Mike, Linda, Mary and Lucy, it saddened me so to hear that John had died. My prayers are with you all. I have thought of so may fun things that John did at work and have wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. Lynn and Austin, you are expecially in my prayers. I know your hearts are hurting but cling together for support while you lean on the Lord.

Dear Janet and Andires family,
I was saddened to hear about John. Even all these years later I can remember his boyish good looks and his smile--way back in our St. Joe days. I will remember him--and you--in my prayers.
