Dear Millicent, Emma, John Quincy, Anne and Tom,
Sending my condolences to you on the loss of your unforgettable husband, dad and brother John. Over the last 50 years, in contact and sometimes not, John was a great friend. So glad I had a chance to speak with him over the last few months, and to see the John I had always known - clever and funny and genially listening to my too long reminiscences of years and dive bars past. John was one of the few people who visited me when I lived in Minnesota, and he found an apartment for me so I could return to New York - more dive bars. I know he did as much for many others. His amazing work ethic and stamina beautifully matched his ability to fall asleep on any couch. I'll stop now, but I'll never get over that I won't be receiving emails from John that the smelt are running in Cayuga lake.
Love to you all,
Sean
