I am so sad to hear about John's passing. John was my God Father and adopted Uncle. My family had spent many years on Sundays talking and watching tv at my Aunt Carolyn's house and my house. We miss you! The Ballou Family

To John's Family and Friends,

I was so very sorry to hear of John's passing. I was a friend of his for many years at St. Edward's Church. He was a real gentleman and gentle man. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless. Pat Murray
