When I began serving as an organist at Saint Paul's over three years ago, John was among the first people who warmly welcomed me. Almost every Sunday morning, he'd greet me with questions about my garden at home, or with excitement about a Red Sox or Patriots win. He was a friendly and faithful man, and he will be truly missed. For John's family and friends, I pray for comfort and peace.
