My condolences to your family on the loss of this wonderful man. I worked with John during his years at MDE. He was a kind and gentle co-worker, mentor, and friend. I will always remember his strong work ethic, his ability to embrace change, and his positive outlook on life. He will be missed.

Cathy, So sorry that your Dad has passed away. We believe that he has been called home, it is sad for us but we can be happy for him. He is now with God the Father free of pain, worries, and no more struggles with sickness. We love you and are praying for Jesus to wrap you and your family in his arms comforting you during these trying times.
