“Jeanine & Family, I wish to extend my condolences and deepest sympathy! I did not realize that your son had died nearly 2 years ago! “Ed “ was the chip off the old block and John the same with his Dad, Ed! John felt at ease with the powerful and powerless. I spent pretty much my first 25 years of life knowing and growing up with John! Many of those memories are best laid to rest with him!! He was one of a kind! The world has lost one of her better angels! Pat Houlahan”
