Dr. Provence was my favorite professor at SMU where I was a fulltime grad student. He was a great mentor, and his calm demeanor helped reduce my stress during grad school. Our paths crossed again when he joined TI full time in Forest lane where I worked. It is hard to believe that he is no longer with us. May he rest in peace.

Dr. Provence was my professor at SMU several years ago. I thoroughly enjoyed his night lectures and learned a great deal from him. I am sorry for his family and their loss.

I worked for John for several years as a direct report to him at Texas Instruments. John was one of the nicest people to work for and he never said a bad word about anyone. His loss saddens me. My prayers are with his family. God bless.

John,
I wish I could tell you this in life, but you were one of my best mentors when I was a student. I have very fond memories of building completely over-the-top projects for your classes. Your easy-going nature always hid your very deep technical ability. I am glad that you were able to share both of these with me.
Journey well.

John was a dear childhood friend of mine in Noblesville, Indiana. The memories of him and his family have been very special to me over the years. Those memories of him will be even more dear to me with his passing. Please accept my condolences and know that your family is in the prayers of my family.
