Kathy, Patti, and family,
John was a good person. I am hoping he and Bob Chappuis are having a good time together right now in Heaven. I remember that they started at IBM on the same day. I know how strong your family's faith was with things like Teams of Our Lady, and I know John was respected at IBM. My son-in-law works for Robert, and I am not surprised that he is also respected by his employees. It was a gift to know John, and I am truly sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Bill

Our love and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Roger and I were blessed to have spent such a pleasant evening with Uncle John and Aunt Kath during our recent trip to Minnesota. I will always treasure the memories of our camping trips together and pig roasts. May the peace Christ be with and your families.
