It was a true pleasure & an extreme honor to work with John on a personal & professional level, while receiving Physical Therapy @ Plum Tree. I miss his determined spirit, humor, singing, & "Jack Nicholson" or "Clark Gable" looks. My sincerest prayers that his soul find rest & peace, and my deepest condolences to Anita & the family that for comfort as you grieve.
