Hi Chrissie
Sorry to hear of the loss of John. He will always be remembered as a bit of a character. He never let his limitations prevent him from having a good time. His sense of humor/wit and painting talents were all to be admired. Thinking of you at this time. We are out of town this weekend so will need to catch up. Nev & Donna
