    John was a graduate of Delphi High School, Delphi, Indiana, Class of 1957. As a classmate, we had a great deal of respect for John. Unfortunately, we had little if any contact with him after he left the Carroll County area and relocated to Arkansas. We extend our sympathy to John’s wife and all of the family.

    To Julie, David, Teresa and families, I am sorry to hear about the passing of your husband/dad. I remember the card games around the table at Pearl's house and how he would get tickled about something and laugh and laugh. John was quiet like his dad, but when he spoke, you definitely wanted to listen up. You all will be in my prayers in the coming days, Gayle
