Our deepest sympathy to all of you at this difficult time, may all the great memories of "Hoebie" provide you comfort. I have many memories that I cherish of my Dad and John back on Sabbath and all the nights babysitting for Jackie and then John walking me home telling me a humorous story. My hopes are that John and Eddie will reunite in their new journey and be at peace.
