Anne McGee Fairbanks wrote a sympathy message

“Oh my, John only missed his goal of becoming a centenarian by a couple of months! WOW; good for him! Lee and I have been privileged to have known him for 17 years and we treasure the many shared times we had with him, Mary, friends and occasionally with other family members. We'll miss his warm smiles, hugs and the tender heart he often displayed, especially when reading his writing aloud. His devotion to his wife was profound, and was deep for his family , church and career. Anne/Lee Fairb.”
