I'm so very sorry to hear this news! John and Pam (and the rest of the family) have always held a special place in my heart. They were wonderful neighbors and dear friends. John was such a warm, generous, hard working and fun-loving man. My heart goes out to you all, especially Pam. Sending love from Atlanta.

May God Bless you all during this difficult time, wrapping his arms around each and everyone of you. May he take the pain we all are experiencing in the loss of such a good man and friend, and remind us of the fun, loving and unforgettable memories we were honored to share with John. So glad our paths crossed during this lifetime.
