Mary Ann and Family,
It is with deep regret I am writing you about John’s death. We have been good friends for at least 65 years. I remember seeing a picture of John in his dress uniform, it made me proud to have known him. I will miss our twice a year phone calls updating our families accomplishments.
He will be in our hearts —- Always.
Sincerely,
With love,
Ken and Lynne Anderson

Mary Ann, I am so very sorry to have read in an alumnae post that your beloved husband has passed. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy and prayerful support for you, my friend, and for your entire family, including your wonderful daughters who it was my my honor and pleasure to have taught at SJA. With much love.
