Bill enjoyed working with John at Classic Chevrolet and Ruth Anne (Thorpe) knew the whole family when they all lived on Brandywine Road. We had a lot of fun as kids. We will miss him.

I met John a number of years ago while visiting my sister and brother in law - Theresa & Glen Faulkner. On every visit after, I would, at some point, have occasion to speak to John. He was a very soft spoken, pleasant man. He will be greatly missed by my sister and brother in law. Rest in peace John.
