Linda Proctor jitrbuglinda@hughes.net Julie and family, You don't know me and I really didn't know John other than I saw him at Hawthorne School where my grandchildren have attended. I know it has been over a month now since you lost John, but I really felt I had to write, especially since the passing of Mrs. Kathy Hill just last week. My grandkids were upset about Mrs. Hill and then started telling me about John's passing and how much loss they felt over both deaths. My grandkids that have attended Hawthorne are Brandon Proctor, Kenzie Olson and Leif Olson. They spent the last weekend at my home and we got to talking about both John and Kathy and I wanted you to know that my kids really liked John and said he was fun and happy and never grumpy with the kids at school. I really wanted you to know that and to say how much I appreciated how he treated the children. That is very special to all of us and he will be remembered. Please know that you are all in our prayers.
