Dear Leslie and Family .
I was very saddened to hear
of John's passing , I am glad to
have been able to attend his
service on Sunday . I spent many
hours in the mid 60's and the
early 70's with him and his brother Alan , he could do things
that would make me laugh so
hard and I will never forget those
hours and days his brother and
he were like family to my family
he lived with my family for a while
at one time . I am going to miss
him very much , as I miss my
brother John who lost his life in
an auto accident in 1972 . I am
sure that God has him in his care
and we will all be together in Heaven someday .God bless and
comfort you and your loved ones.
