Hello Suthers Family, We LOVED having John as our neighbor. We had lots of good visits. Our boys loved checking in on him and helping make sure the sidewalks and drive were safe for the winter. We’ve been blessed for many, many years to have such a great neighbor and friend next to us. John will really be missed a lot.

To Johns family: John and I grew up in the same little town and we were classmates. Our parents were
friends. (John and Dorothy Foley). I am so very sorry for your loss. I haven’t seen John for several yrs now but, as a boy in Elementary and HS he was such a nice caring young man.
You have my heartfelt sympathies . John will be sadly missed.

My boys had the honor of mowing John’s lawn. There was a special connection with Ethan, Zach, and John. The boys thought the world of him and always wanted his lawn to be the best. We send our love to his family, and hope to meet his family. We were out of the state and could not attend the funeral.
