To John's children and grandchildren
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your father and grandfather. I worked with John at Illinois Bell and he lived about 9 houses from my daughter's home, so I saw him periodicly. I drove by the house about a month ago however, I didn't see John. I enjoyed talking with John at the Christmas Construction luncheons we had and at the pizza parties he attended. John was a great guy and will be missed by all of us.
