Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. We fondly recall John coming to cheer the AGHS Ice Hockey team so many times, with his boots and glasses. What an enthusiastic and cheerful young man he was!
Kevin will sadly miss a good friend from AG and sports teams (baseball, lacrosse). He fondly recalls their last time together at the YMCA this summer, where he and John trained to get ready for their upcoming sports seasons.
May your memories bring you comfort.
