Deep condolences on John's death. I rode the bus with John to CCHS and graduated with him from OLPH (1964) and CCHS (1968). I remember John as kind, friendly, and intelligent. I predict St. Peter met him at the gate, and all Holy Men and Women of God stood to applaud his arrival. A contribution has been made in John's name to the "CCHS Class of 1968 Fund" (hopefully soon to become an Endowed Scholarship Fund). As he rests in Peace, I am confident he will continue to intercede with Christ when we all need God's help. Warm regards, Donald Stevens
