John was a very nice man and great neighbor to my parents. Whenever I dropped by to see my folks and saw John about to get into his car or by the side of his home, we'd exchange hello's and usually followed that by some conversation at hand. He always asked about my ailing mom, and he'd never discuss his own health ailments unless I asked him about it, and how he was doing. When my folks had their 50th wedding anniversary we found ourselves in need of a impromptu photographer. All my family members from all over USA were at our parents home, setting up our family photo in the backyard when we realized we'd always have one left out of the photo, unless someone else took the shot. No problem, I asked John to do it, and he had his own much more elaborate camera and took many that day, and I learned he was also quite adept and enjoyed this as a hobby.He finished up and said he'd take care of developing them and did that too- we were handed great large family photos of the 50th anniversary gathering. This was special as its the final photos before my mom started on her journey to the nursing home for care. Thanks John, this will always be remembered as well as the favorite spot where we'd end up talking "over the fence" the many times over the years. God Bless the family, Lederer' s and LaBoua's, all a great family to know and have next to my folks.

John had a great sense of humor very dry, a good partner at work for 12 years. We played a lot of golf together and a good competitor. He will be missed. Rest in Peace
