Jo and Family,
John's memories warm my heart often. Thinking about the time when the youth group caroled to him over the phone when he was in the hospital. His response filled with encouragement and tears brought me to tears. His spirit was filled with Hospitality before we even got in the door he would offer us something to drink and a place to sit. But what I remember the most was his Love for his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Oh how much he must be loving his time with Jesus right now! My prayers and thought are with you Jo and the family. He was a very special man.

Saw this today and it brought back many fond memories. I worked for and with John at Hudson's from 1971 to 1984 in the wine and food departments buying office. We traveled together and enjoyed each other's company. John was quite a guy.
