I knew and respected John through my career at PEKO and worked with him on several projects for DuPont over many years. He was extremely dedicated to his job and the programs he managed, and made sure whatever needed to be done was done right. His high standards demanded the same from others, and his work ethic made those working for him want to their best too. The way he spoke so highly of his daughters and grandkids, however, revealed his softer side and that his dedication to all that he did came right from his heart. I know his family will miss him dearly and my condolences go out to them.
