John,
I've only met your father one time when we were at your house when my parents didn't have electric and you and your wife were so kind to let us in and clean up, eat soup and the next day have coffee. Your Dad was there and a very quiet man but I knew deep inside that he had something special inside of him. I think that the fact that he had such a good heart transferred to you and he will always live inside of you so in reality he will never be gone but exist in all the lives he has touched over the years. People like us are truly blessed to have parents like we do. Thank you for passing on your generosity and kindness to others as your father has done. I am thinking about you and your family and praying that God will help you through this loss.
