I will miss John greatly. I met him in the late 60's at IBM San Jose. He was a man of great integrity, a good Engineer, a practical man and down to earth. I recall him saying to me how good a glass of red wine at dinner was. Thanks for the advice John. Blessings to his family. RIP John, Bill Jump

My sincere sympathy to the family of John Cabri. I will always think fondly of his stories of being stationed in Germany and his many road trips there. He and Jim are now reminising in heaven. Pat Viallet
