Lester Gibbs wrote a sympathy message

“John, I will miss our chats and occasional meals when we recalled our years in Hartford and our adventures with the band and choir at Hartford High School. Working on the Nott farm in the Summers was also a growing experience. You were a master at sending out cartons and funny stories on Facebook and through email. We'll swap more stories about the grands and great grands in God's time. May Light Perpetual always shine brightly on this new journey. Lester Gibbs, Class of 1958 SGM, US Army”
