Our prayers are with the family and friends whom were a part of knowing such a wonderful man.
Though John is with his Lord, we want to continue to celebrate John's life by the stories that each of us hold dear. I best remember John as a former co-worker and friend at Anthem Blue Cross . I especially am thankful to John and Deb for introducing me to the love of my life....my husband Dick Shelton. MAY God bless all at this time to help heal and finding comfort. JILL S.
