The family is grateful for the gentle care provided to our father by St. Martha Villa in Downingtown, and the dedicated staff of Aseracare Hospice. A sincere thank you to John's friends at his favorite restaurant, Villa Pizza, and all the caring neighbors and residents of Phoenixville who never hesitated to lend a helping hand in his final years.
