Like my brother stated, John was certainly a mentor. He taught the value of what hard work would produce, not just the monetary aspect, but more importantly the gratification in seeing the outcome. I experienced this many times during my career being confronted with what seemed like impossible tasks, but through the John Roberts theory of “roll up the sleeves and don’t stop until you are satisfied with the outcome,” I had a very successful career in service to our Country. The Lord places people in our lives for a reason and I am thankful he placed John Roberts in my path very early in my life. God Bless you and Thank you John. Hope you are at Spring Training in the REAL MAJOR LEAGUE! Bill Parrish Maidens Va
