Sheri and Bob Michaud and Family: I was taken aback and saddened to see the obit for your father John in the Journal Star! It brought back memories of our shared trip to Olmeca Presbytery in Mexico many hears ago! I appreciated getting acquainted with John at that time. May you find peace in all the good memories your family is sharing at this time of grief which is so much a part of life, but you can rest assured your dad’s life was a life well lived! Peace and blessings, Arta Smith
