Sue's dad, John, passed away last night after a several month battle with cancer.I never did have the privilege of meeting him, but felt that I knew him at least a little, vicariously through Sue. I understood him to be a very quiet and private person, that was small in stature but not in heart.
He has now joined his sweetheart, Faye, who preceeded him in death, and is definitely free from the pain and suffering that he has been experiencing for the last several months.
John's son, Tom, was able to take care of him in the early stages of his illness before he was diagnosed, as they both lived in Florida.
When he began to get sicker, he moved back to Buffalo to live with his daughter, Lori, and son-in-law, Gary. They were both angels to him and took great care of him until John had to be admitted to the hospital where he was when he passed away.
Sue was able to see him a short time ago and was grateful for the time that she spent with him. She was also very appreciative of her brother and sister for the care they provided their dad.
As in life, he chose to leave this world peacefully and privately.
He will be interred with his wife, Faye, in Florida where they have been living for a number of years.
John had many family and friends that loved him....He will be missed by all those that knew him
