John was a long time member of the Prairie Singers, and his presence among us will be missed. He was always on hand to assist with setting up for our concerts, and to help haul the equipment. Our condolences to his family and friends.
We are so very sad to hear of John's passing...or, Lucy and Pete called him. Our 30 year friendship was memorable, funny and lasting. John was one in a million and we were honored to have known him and love him. We are sorry we didn't know or we would have been there. Pete spoke to John on his birthday and is relishing his conversation and all the crazy and good times they shared. Love and prayers to his family. Rest In Peace Luc... Pete and Ann Kijinski
