Warren Webster wrote a sympathy message

“John was a truly special contributor to the Village at Brookwood, especially with his careful articles about residents for the Village Voice for almost 13 years, and his dedication to the Upstairs Singers, playing piano and conducting for our residents in Health Care. My wife and I were fortunate to get to know John and Eloise for the past five years. He will be sorely missed, but not forgotten. Mary and Warren Webster.”
