Yesterday

I have fond memories of John. His visits to AZ.
we´re always joyful. He
was a positive, thoughtful, caring man with a contagious smile.

Over the years, he never missed sending a
Christmas card with an added note and an awesome picture. He has left a mark that won´t be forgotten.

My heartfelt condolences to his family.
