Angie~
I was soooo very sad to see your dad's obituary in the paper. Mark and I are very sorry for your loss. We think it's awesome that you acknowledged your dad's donor! Everyone should be an organ donor. When I think of your dad I remember him sitting in his same spot at the kitchen table on Scott Ln reading his newspaper :O) Our hearts go out to you and your family.

Pat & Family,
We're so sorry for your loss--you're in our thoughts and prayers. I always enjoyed visiting John at the yard and listening to his stories. John was a good friend to all of us at NAC--he will be missed.

Dear Pat,
So sorry to hear of Johns passing. I still remember how very sick he was before his transplant, and how you ran from place to place to visit him. Jim and I have been married 20 years now. I am having back surgery tomorrow, again.
We will keep you in our prayers.
