John was our Postmaster in Cedars. He always went above and beyond the call.It was a sad day when he retired but I am happy he was able to have time to do what he loved. My prayers and thoughts are with the family at this time.

Mrs. Dwyer, Becky and Amy, I'm so sorry for your loss. Mr. Dwyer always made me laugh and I know he loved each of you very much. Smile with all the memories and, of course, you'll be in my prayers. His soul is with the angels until you meet again. My condolences and love, Mary Rose Faustman Cusick
