We are sorry this is late as we carried a card to the Funeral Services and did not leave for you. Lowell enjoyed playing golf with Jack in the summers at Pinewood Country Club. Orca, our relationship has always been very special to me (even though I did not always join the "Putters"). We always enjoyed Jack's talent with music. Please know that we are thinking of you and your Family and hope to see you this Summer. Fondly, Lowell and Nedra Dorman.

We are so very sorry for your loss. My mother (Marjorie) always spoke so highly of John. She remembers fondly a boat (the Rum Dum) he built back when she was a child and trips to ride in it. He must have had a great sense of humor and he was clearly a very accomplished man. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Melanie Bates
