Jennifer Wellborn wrote a sympathy message

“We lovingly remember John — his humour, his infectious laugh, and that wonderful booming voice! He was the heart and soul of keeping us together for decades until he eventually gave up the job and asked me to take over. I always enjoyed our telephone conversations — especially since my son has been very active with the National Association of Criminal Defence Lawyers, an organization dear to John's heart. His classmates share your sorrow! Bethesda-Chevy Chase Class of 1950”
