"Having met John only a couple of times, I can only imagine how large a heart of gold John had, but I do remember his smile, and yes, I agree,  it seemed as wide as the sea.

Having enjoyed working with Susan for some time, I too can feel her sense of loss and she is in my prayers."

"I'm sorry I did not know John, but I do know most of his PA family. His sister Pat has been a very dear friend for a long time and I love her dearly. If John was anything like Pat he surely had a lot of friends and touched a lot of lives.  RIP John"

I KNOW I will see you, again, but this time in Heaven."
