Beth Casey lit a candle

“Dear Marilyn and John, After nearly 50 years of a dear friendship, it is so very difficult to express my sorrow for your loss. I loved and admired John. His kindness, compassion and way of turning lemons into lemonade was extraordinary. Both you and John were so kind to me through difficult times and helped me see the light. John’s light will remain with all of us always. My hugs and prayers are with you, Love, Beth”
