We were shocked and saddened to hear of the passing of John on Easter Sunday.
He was a good man and we are so sorry for your loss. Not only was he Ken's boss for many many years, but we also considered both of you our friends. May it comfort you to know that John is no longer suffering and is now in a better place.

Heaven Gained Another Angel ~ The Night Sky Another Star. We worked together for close to 35 years and I enjoyed our daily conversations John. It touched my heart listening to how much you loved your family. You were so excited when your Grandbabies were born, smiling from ear to ear. I am thankful you found Cathy. She made you so happy and you deserved that. God has big plans for you. You will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
