Dear Patty, I am a student at Philadelphia University. John came to our school to share his life experience and to enrich our journey to becoming better future Physician Assistants. With the little time that i spent listening to John, i could tell that he was a very nice man and will be surely missed. He talked about you and how you were of great help through the entire process. I am very sorry for your loss, but please be assured that you have one more person praying for you. One loss on earth is another soul gained in heaven. You should feel lucky to have a man (now an angel) watching over you.

Hello Patty
I am a friend of John's sister, Judy. I am very sorry for your loss. John was an honorable man. He was taken from this Earth far too early. I hope you find comfort in your memory of him in healthier days.

Dear Sweet Patty......I cannot believe John is gone. I kept waiting for a miracle, thinking somehow he would beat this cruel and relentless disease. But God had other plans for John. His deep deep love for you, his kindness to anyone he met, his devotion to God and all the works he did for others here on earth are now being rewarded by our Heavenly father. He is up there with the angels, the beautiful sky, the stars. He will be forever young,, forever beautiful and forever watching over you, Patty, every day and every night, John will be with you giving you his strength and eternal love.....Much love, Edie and family
