So very sorry for your loss. I never met John but from knowing Kevin and Father Colin, he must have been an incredible man, father and person. I pray this transition is gentle for all.

To Pat, Christy, Kevin & Brian, I wish you all comfort in the expressions of support you will now receive. Your Dad was always a quick draw with help for others and his warm-hearted humor. His soul rests as he draws ever closer to true peace in His perpetual light.
