I had the privilege of sitting next to John for 10 years in the north Olmstead evangelical friends church choir. John was passionate about his singing, but he also knew how to have a good time we had so much fun terrorizing Dr. Chang, Bruce Clark, the altos, and pretty much everyone except the other basses. John had a great sense of humor.

Mr. John Anderson... A gentleman indeed!
I first met John at church a long time ago.
He was a very interesting gentleman who was easy to listen to while talking and a gift to listen to while he was singing!
I am very thankful to know John and his family.
Another singing Angel enters the kingdom of God!
