My sympathy to the Abbott family.
Sorry for your loss. I attended Niebull and Big Flats schools with John. I have been gone for many years from Wisconsin (CA n NC) Still love looking back across time to the days when things were simpler and friends lasted a life-time. I had hoped in coming to Wisconsin I might meet again the friend I had know but we don’t always get what we want.
I do and will always remember John with fond memories. Sorry for you loss; k
eeping the family in our prayers.
