As a member of Williamsburg Presbyterian Church for 20+ years, I have long admired John and Molly as wonderful additions to our worship community. Part of the celebration of the 150th anniversary of the church involved youth interviewing the members who had been members of WPC for over 50 years. John and Molly were gracious and interesting people for the students to interview. We will miss them.

Peggy, your Mom and Dad were members of my Kingsmill Duplicate Bridge Group...they were both special people.
Your Dad and Mom both had pleasant memories and you also. Your parents were really thrilled with your family.
Know you were able to make your Dad's last years at Chambrel, and also made your memories of him & your Mom, Molly...

Peggy, your father was both a scholar and a true Virginia gentleman. I recall his utmost patience and kindness during the rather raucous slumber parties hosted at your house in our youth. Please take comfort that he is with your mother now. His many fine qualities will live on through you and your children. You have my deepest condolences.
