It was with great sadness that I learned of John's untimely death! His love and dedication for family was a shining example for all of us, as was is caring attitude for his fellow human beings. Those of us who knew and loved him realize the world
was a better place because of John.
My heartfelt sympathy for Lori and her family.

Dear Jennifer, Lori, and Czech Family,
I will always remember how lovely the father-daughter dance was at Jennifer's wedding, how John seemed the quintessential father of the bride, proud, loving, and strong.
My deepest sympathy to all of you.

My deepest heartfelt sympathy to the Czech family. I had the pleasure of knowing and working with John at Ingalls for many many years. He was truly one that cared about people and had a great personality and great sense of humor. He will be sorely missed. I cannot express in words the sadness this terrible loss has made. He was greatly admired and respected. May your wonderful memories bring your heart some peace. God bless.
