Condolences
Linda, Jeff, Jennifer, Jeremy and families please accept our heartfelt condolences with John's passing. I have many great memories of working with John and the fishing derbies that you hosted. He was one of my mentors, always there to help me become a good union man. He also gave me the desire and encouragement to stand up for everyone's health and safety in the workplace. He was a big man in a small package, always loyal and supportive. May God bless you all and give you strength.
