I pray for you, John. Your impact on the lives of those you have and have not met will echo throughout the ages of humanity and beyond, as it is with all men. Though 99.99% of the lives lived will inevitably be lost and forgotten within a generation, the entire Universe of our Creator will be forever affected by their presence.

John was a good man, a captain of industry and father to my beloved, late brother in-law Bob. I only knew John briefly, but my wife and I were blessed to have spent time with him and his beautiful wife not a month before God called him home.

No one may ever see this note and the world has long since twirled many revolutions from the day we last met, but I will hold the moment I'm my mind for all time.

May The Lord bless you and keep you.

Love,

Matthew and Laurie McCluskey

I worked with John Selby for 12 years at SPS Technologies (under the name of Brown). I have many fond memories of those years. I wish the family peace at this difficult time.
