Dear Joanne and family - My sincere condolences for your loss. John was such a wonderful man to work with in my career in the IRS. He hired me as his executive assistant back in the 1990s and it was such an honor that he trusted me in that roll. I know his loss in your family will be so hard but he will live in your hearts forever. Leta

Beautifully written obituary and so true! Blessings to the Ader Family. One of my favorite memories was Joanne & John coming to the lake and piling into the station wagon to go to church! Godspeed John.

I first met John in 1984 when my sister, who had been working for the IRS was murdered in Virginia. He welcomed us with open arms. 10 years ago when we became summer residents of BJ we were pleased to reunite with him. My husband saw him at mass every week. We feel we were very blessed to know him.
