Mrs. Hintz and family:  Worked with John for 13 years at J&J.  Two years ago we started to share his job as our semi-retirement plan.  The next month he said he was retiring completely.  I’m still doing my half and the contractors to thid day are always asking about him.  Shocked an saddened by the news.  I liked John very much.  Please accept my sincere sympathy for your loss.
