My heartfelt condolences to the family of John. Over the years I had occasion to work with John while he was a councillor for the Brokenhead First Nation. Anytime I spent with him was always a pleasure as he was so very helpful and believed so strongly in his community. My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. - Posted by: Elaine Boyd (Acquaintance) on: May 26, 2011
