Mr. John's Family,
My deep condolences to you on the loss of your loved one. I remember Mr. John as he walked in our subdivision, often daily when the weather allowed. That's how we met, as I worked in my yard or drove my car and saw him walking. I have missed him these past few days and now I know why. Please know that I shall always remember our conversations and his friendly smile. Always a good word, always a smile.
