We were very sorry to hear of John's passing. We did not have a chance to talk and visit with John as much as we would have liked but always recall that he had a smile on his face just like the picture shown here ! I especially enjoyed talking with John about his work and problem solving issues at Boeing. He was always an interesting and personable person to talk to. He will be greatly missed. R.I.P. our dear family friend. Mary & Bob Sorrells.
