Dear Family, I send you my deepest sympathy. I have known John for 13 years, working with him on many projects. Last thurs. he called me regarding my visit to the Starting Gate, I know now I was supposed to pick up that call, we chatted for a while and I told him not to worry about things, we would deal with things later, and to just take care of himself. You can imagine my shock when I picked up the paper on Fri. I will miss working with him, as hard as I tried, I could never get mad at him. Please give Peter my sympathy as well. Eileen Bauer, Lanc.
