Lois and family my prayers and condolences at this time of your great loss. John was a wonderful man and will be greatly missed by all who had the privlege of knowing him. Lois I still remember the Cub law and Cub promise
Lois & all your wonderful Family,
I think of you all today with sorrow but also with a smile. John would want that. He loved a good joke or just to give him the gears after a quick witted comment he would give. Just remember the suffering is over and the pain is gone. Hugs to all, I’m so sorry I can’t be there in person but know I’m there in my heart and yours. I will give a big hug to Lois the next time I see her.
Take care & cherish your memories,
