John (We always called him "Keilly") was always a kind support to me during difficult times--but never failing to add the caveat "If you tell anyone, I'll deny it."
My oldest daughter loves her "lucky" initials JMK and even remembers sitting in his big chair at work during a visit when I no longer worked there.

Love you, Jo!
