Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.

My deepest condolences to my son-in-law John and the rest of the Tolleson family. It was true a pleasure to have known John. He will be missed by his family and everyone who knew him. A few years ago he gave me a very nice pocket knife for Christmas, I will think of him every time I use it.
