It is with such complete and utter sadness that I must tell you of the sudden passing of my husband, best friend and life guide. John has been the love of my life for the past 27 years and I don't know if I will ever get over the emptiness I feel without him by my side. He was the most generous, compassionate and loyal friend to me and so many others. He will be missed and cherished always. I will love him completely and forever.
