I don't know if you will get this, but I just found out about your loss yesterday, March 1. This is a loss of such a special young man, may he be resting peacefully in the Mighty Arms of God.

John worked with us at our HH fundraiser for the literacy council. We teach people how to read and do math at no cost. John saw fit to spend his time as a young man volunteering so that we were able to buy books and pay rent for places that students can meet tutors. He changed people's lives through his work, even at such a young age. I will miss him terribly.

We will do a memorial for him at our 2015 HH fundraiser. He will not be forgotten.
