John was one of those rare classmates whom everyone liked. He was kind, smart, humorous, and always smiling. We lived in the same apartment complex after graduation and he was the one who you could count on to have a caring attitude, an insightful comment and an authentic interest in whatever you had to say. It was no surprise to any of us that he went to become a highly respected pediatrician and a loving father and husband. He is the type of leader and role model we so desperately need today. On behalf of Marianne, me and the gang from the Woods and Forest Village apartments, I offer my sincere condolences to Cindy and all their beautiful children. We share your loss, but are confident that John is united with our Lord. Our prayers go out for each of you. |
