A few years have passed, but my memories of John are fresh. I don´t know if you remember the four of going to dinner - almost 20 years ago. My Joe has Alzheimer´s and I am comforted knowing he will be with John and our Lord.

Sharron, so sorry to hear of John´s passing. Your Christmas card was returned, so I knew something was wrong. John was a good friend to my husband Joe Mathis. You are in my prayers.
