    Doreen, Kevin and Family. I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Although I have only met your loving husband and father a couple of times I feel very blessed to have done so. He was such a kind man. He took the time to show me all around the farm and answered all of my crazy questions and did so with pride and patience. I learned so much from all of you that day and I am so thankful for that opportunity. Memories of John are special, keep them close to your heart.
