Dear Margaret and Bill,

Dr. Seres had a tremendous impact on my growth as an individual and in my business life. The guidance and insight he provided concerning human nature has always served me well. There are individuals with whom you cross paths in your life that continue to have a profound impact and Dr. Seres was one of those people. My thoughts and prayers are with you both.

Margaret,
"When he shall die
Take him and cut him out
In little stars,
And he will make the
Face of heaven so fine
That all the world
Will be in love with night
And pay no worship,
To the garish sun."
Romeo & Juliet
I'm so sad that you have to know
this pain.
Your friend from 3rd grade.

Deepest Sympathy from all of your family at SDI. John taught each and everyone of us to look inside yourself and put your best foot foward. His sense of "humor" was always welcomed and his expressions noted. May God bless your family and hold you close to his heart in the days ahead.
Norma and Kenny Neuhouser
