JOHN WILL BE GREATLY MISSED BY HIS FRIENDS AT THE USPS. HE WAS A FUN GUY TO WORK WITH AND WOULD HELP OUT ANYBODY IN NEED. HE WAS A TRUE GENTLEMAN. I ENJOYED HEARING HIM TALK ABOUT HIS FISHING TRIPS TO THE TROUT STREAMS AROUND VIROQUA. THE PHOTOS WERE SO BEAUTIFUL, HE HAD GREAT TASTE. THE STORIES HE TOLD ABOUT HIS KIDS AND GRANDKIDS WERE FUN TO LISTEN TO BECAUSE YOU COULD HEAR THE "LOVE" IN HIS VOICE. I KNOW HE WAS A SUPER DAD AND GRANDDAD. VICKI, JOHN WAS SO LUCKY TO HAVE YOU FOR 24 YEARS. YOU ARE A VERY SPECIAL PERSON. WE WILL MISS YOUR VISITS. THANK YOU FOR DOING FOR JOHN WHAT NOBODY ELSE COULD DO. I KNOW YOU MADE JOHNS LIFE BEAUTIFUL.

My deepest sympathy to the Family of John Huppler. May God comfort you all. He was a fine and sincere gentleman, whom I enjoyed working with and talking to, when we worked together, before each of us went different department. I am grateful to have met him, such a man of happy disposition. U are in my thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Peter T. Ohlson
