Barbara,
My condolences to you and your family on John's untimely passing. All of us at Volunteers of America have benefited from John's exceptional leadership in the development and operation of affordable housing. He has touched the lives of thousand and thousands of people and will do so for many many years to come. My one regret is that I never made it to John's fishing camp!
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Ron
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Barbara and the Hood family. John left this world way too early but while he was here, he made a real difference in the lives of many, especially the thousands of elderly who would not have had a safe, comfortable place to live.

John was a good friend, and we will miss him.
