John was not only a long-time member of the NFB, but former President of the Stamford Area Chapter, and served alongside of Mary Main. Unfortunately, at this time there are no details available for memorial services as he will be buried out of state by family. I am attempting to locate contact information for his family so that we may pay our respects. Please keep John, and his family, in your thoughts and prayers. John’s participation and advocacy laid the foundation for the NFB in my hometown and we remain very grateful.<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></p><div id="AppleMailSignature"><div><p class="MsoNormal">Respectfully,<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">P.A.
