May your happiest days as a family be your fondest memories. His fight to battle cancer and have as many years as he could was commendable and a testament to his desire to heal. Love always, Carol

My heart is saddened to hear of John losing his battle. Skip and I (G) (your neighbors) have been praying for a few years for his healing. Now he has the ultimate healing in heaven. It will be very sad not to see him out and about walking Gemma. We’ll be praying for you Maureen and your family as you deal with the loss. Let us know if there is anything we can do
