I  am so glad you selected me as your wife. It has been the most beautiful and full of love in my  life. I love you so much.

Dear Helen, we were saddened to hear about John, who was such a special friend to us.  He was not only a delightful colleague to work with, but we will always be deeply indebted to him for introducing us to each other more than forty-five years ago.  That led to our marriage and many enjoyable times with the two of you.  We cherish those memories.
Please let us know if we can do anything to help during this difficult time.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love, Pat and Bill Johnston

My condolences go out to the family of Mr. McCarthy. May the many lessons learned and the wonderful times shared together, provide you with peace now and in the days ahead. Also you can look forward to a time when those asleep in death will have the prospect of resuming life again free from all causes of death and the grief it brings.

Helen and Family, My most heartfelt sympathy on your loss of John, my friend for over 40 years.  May you be comforted by the knowledge that he still lives, although in another dimension.  

Love and Prayers,

Helen and Family- Yvonne and I send our deepest heart felt sympathy to you in this very painful time with your loss of John. You can be very thankful that you were privilidged to have shared life with a very fine person. Having shared many years of my working career with Shell with John who was a very prolific patent attorney and an outstanding individual who I first met in Emerville Cal.in 1956 where I was assigned for a while and later in Houston where QI worked with John in my Head Office Mechanical Engineering assignment. John was a very dedicated patent attorney who worked very closely with all of the engineers in the Shell Pioneering Offshore work generating a great many unique patents that was the foundation for the Shell Offshore School for Industry given in 1963 at Shell Development . John was a great friend to all Shell engineers and captured important features of their inventions in the patent disclosures he readly developed. His unique talents in capturing the essence of a great many offshore equipment and systems was not as fully appreciated as it might have been and was greatly missed when he retired. He was greatly respected by all who worked with him.I wish you and family all the very best in your grief over his great loss. With many fond memories of working with John over 30 very productive years. With our Deepest Sympathy, Yvonne and Ronald Geer.
