Dear Klauss Family,
The Lally family is saddened to learn of your loss, and we regret that we cannot attend John's visitation/memorial. Your loved one was my dear coworker and friend. He was reliable, brave, kind and generous. My son recalls with gratitude that John lent him his van to haul belongings to college in the late 70's. Thank you for sharing this good man with Chicago and his CFD comrades.
