To John’s relatives ,my heart felt condolences on your loss. He was very kind to many people when he worked in western Canada. John had a great sense of humor, was quick witted, and when the weekend arrived in a show of true hospitality, there was always a place for one more person working far from home to enjoy a home cooked Sunday dinner at John’s place.
