Dear Joanna,
John was a dear friend of my dad and the whole Robinson family since Merced days way back in 1961. You too. I know my dad thought the world of John. Once, when I was a college student visiting Farmers in Merced, John took me aside and said to me, "You know, your dad is quite a remarkable guy. Everybody here loves him." Well, John was quite a remarkable guy who was loved by everyone who knew him. I'm so glad God blessed John with such a rich life and a wonderful wife to share 61 years of it with. Joanna, we will all miss John, but his memory will stay alive through our cherished friendship with you.
