Polly and family. I am so heartbroken. I want to express my sincere sympathy to you and your family. I have so missed you and John walking around the park and talking to Mesha, Terry and I so many times.
I have kept John in my prayers and will keep your family in my prayers for God to give you comfort and peace. May God hold you in His loving arms and give you strength as you go through this difficult time.

Thank you for your kind thoughts and I know sincere prayers. Not being able to walk (and talk) was hard for him. He enjoyed those times also. Again thank you for caring.

As a member of the hospital board, my father always admired and spoke highly of John... As hospital administrator, Rick Doan always depended on and praised John... As an employee of the medical center, a separate entity, I always found John insightful and respectful, and relaxed in any situation... He and Polly were wonderful neighbors to my mother... Amazing man...
