    John was not only our financial advisor, but also a friend. Whether in person or on the phone, John was always amiable and of good cheer! We will certainly miss him, and his life light will never be diminished in the hearts of family, friends and the many he came into contact with in his lifetime. Our condolences to John’s children and grandchildren. Rest In Peace John.
