Dear Tessa & family. I was so sorry to read of the death of John and send you my sincere condolences. ( Many years ago I worshipped at St. John’s when Rev. Page and Colin Turner were the Priests. ) I have since moved to Austria but remember with fondness your family and your contribution at St. John’s. R. I. P. John.
