Stephanie and Kenny,
John was a gentle caring person and will be greatly missed by many who had the honor of knowing him. He has a quick wit and generous smile.
I remember him and the "Henry Boys" at Daytona Beach,Fla. Mary Lou Campbell Lehmann and I were also on vacation there. Had many laughs.
Peace to you.
Voge

Stephanie & Kenny, Please accept my heartfelt sympathy on the passing of Uncle John. When I think of him, I always remember the time after some event, (I can no longer recall), out at the 3-in-1, when he took the time to dance with me to Rocky Top because I had been way too shy to dance while everyone was still there. He,s kindness, gentleness and generosity will never be forgotten. Your in my thoughts and prayers.
