To Charlie and Family: I had the pleasure of working with John for two semesters at Calvin's Clinic. I enjoyed getting to know both John and Charlie. John was a hard worker and wonderful man. He always made me laugh and smile during our sessions together. I loved hearing about "Boo" and his tractor. He will be missed dearly and thought of often. I will keep your family in my prayers. Love, Kelsey Wilson
