I am so sad to hear of the passing of John. John was my mentor, supervisor, and great friend at the USITC. He taught me so much for which I will always be grateful. He was always so wonderful to my son, always showing interest in Josh's accomplishments. John was a true gentleman and he was so proud of his family. I will remember John always with love and respect. My deepest sympathy goes to Marge and John A.
