Sorry to hear of John's passing. I worked with John at H&H Color Lab, Also, helped with his photography work outside of his regular, full-
time work. We enjoyed going to lunch and visiting, we had a lot of laughs and good times. We have always remained friends.
He will deeply be missed by myself and all others he came in contact with.

You have my deepest sympathy during this
time.............

I am so sorry to hear about John's passing. I work in the same office as John did. Unfortunately, I did not know him very well but he genuinely was a nice guy. You did not need to know him very well to know that. He was a very warm and inviting person and we'll miss him at the office. May God be with John and his family.
