I was saddened to hear of John’s passing. I worked with him at the J.G. Pyne School. He was such a nice guy. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy.
Kim, so sorry to read about the passing of your husband John. It’s been awhile since I’d seen you both while working for the Lowell Public Schools, but he was always a friendly, good guy, always helpful, I offer my sincere condolences at your loss, you are in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time, RIP John
Kim and Mary, please accept my sincere sympathy for the loss of your beloved John. I had so many fun moments with him at the Pyne. He was always so kind and polite. May your warmest memories remain.
Dear Kim,
I only just learned about John’s passing. Such sad news. I was always very fond of him. We had so many wonderful conversations together when I was at the Pyne. He used to say our messy kindergarten crafts kept him up at night, but he always kept a good sense of humor about it all. I will remember him fondly in my prayers. Love to you and Mary. -Monique
