We came by your house today in the big snowstorm to see if you guys were ok and if you needed anything. The house was empty and dark. Then we found John's obituary on the internet -- we are so sad. Many condolences to you, Valerie, and to your family. We know John will be dearly missed. He was a sweet man.
