I had the pleasure of singing in the row in front of John in choir the last few years. I really miss hearing his sweet voice and seeing that sweet smile. I take comfort in knowing that he is with the Lord.

I am sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I have many fun memories of spending time in your home in Derby with your folks and all of you when I was a kid. Jonnie, you would be so proud of Mike's kids. Nathanael is a young bagpiper, Jared is a whiz at the piano and plays too much "by ear", and Sarah is beginning piano and will soon start violin. The other younger two are very musical as well, just too young for lessons yet. I think of all three of you "girls" often from my past. Our thoughts are with you. Sylvia
