Terry and family,
I am so sorry to hear of John's passing, he and my wife Carol Larson were classmates as well as my cousin Bill. I was an only kid and when John Sr. was looking for a 4th member for his bowling team, along with his sons, I felt I was a family member of the Eichas' family. I also knew his cousin, Joan Almeter as my Mom Ruby was a girlfriend of her Mom. I also worked with John's Jr. Uncle Bob in Gm Security. I've know your family for many years, and consider them a long time friend. I know that John is now with his dad and other friends and family. I also know it will be hard on you Terry as I am still trying to get over my wife's passing last November just before Thanksgiving. There will be times that will be hard for you to get through, but with family and friends, it will ease the pain somewhat. John and I have been friends for about over 50 years now and I will miss him. I know he is in God's hands and will keep a watch over your family. May God Bless you and your family in the years to come.
