I am so sorry for your loss. I only met your father once while all of us were in San Fransico. He was a very nice, and funny man. I enjoyed talking with him for the short time I did. I am certain he will be very missed by all of those that had the pleasure of knowing him.

David and Jim and Family,

Maureen and I are deeply saddened by the passing of your father, John. Thankfully, we share many happy memories of him and Grace together at our and your family gatherings, as well as other occassions. John always seemed to have a joke or humorous comment, and ALWAYS was such a gentleman. We will miss him.
