Condolences

Jeannie, I just heard about John's passing and wanted to send you my sincerest condolences. By chance on Sunday, I found a photograph of you, John, Mom and Dad, and Jim Rowney at a Bobby Burns dinner and smiled at all of the memories I had of our families. Please know that I think of you often and I will pray for peace for your family. Love you and miss you.

I just learned about John’s passing and I wanted to send my condolences to you. I recall planning Robbie Burns Celebration together many years ago and more recently played poker with him every second week. He is missed.
