“Sheilah, Brendan and Bernadette, I am so very sad to hear of John’s passing. He was my favorite professor and the inspiration for all that I accomplished in my studies of Ancient Greek at UCSC. May the memories wrap their arms around all of us in remembering such a sweet, kind-hearted man. Laurie Brady O’Loughlin Cowell ‘78”
