Sandy and myself would like to offer our sincere sympathy. We are sorry that we are not able to attend John’s funeral in person. Our thoughts and prayers with all of you.
The last time I spoke to your dad was several years ago at Long Ridge Mall. I was there with my youngest daughter. I introduced myself to him and we had a good talk. We talked about our families and what they ment to us. It ment alot to me also because I too had recently lost my dad. My prayers are with you.
To John’s Family– John will be missed at the music club! His playing was always very enjoyable for us to hear. Due to health problems I will be unable to attend John’s funeral but will be thinking of you all. God bless. Evelyn Ralston
