To Jean and Family,

I am very sorry to hear about John and send you all my love and sympathy. I have a lot of fond memories of John, he always made me laugh! There was one Thanksgiving at Grammy's house that none of us could eat because he was making us all laugh to hard. I think my sister lost her milk through her nose. John also had a big heart and would be there for the hug if you needed it. We will all miss him dearly.

Love To All,

Lynn & Catherine Thompson (MacNeil)
