As a former GS leader and as a sister to John, this piece really hits me. What a beautiful way to leave a legacy. I loved my tenure with Girl Scouts, helping the girls in my troop to be strong, independent women who make the world a better place. And I loved John, a kind person who also made the world a better place.
Mary Beth, Thank you for reading and writing a response to this post. The Girl Scouts are such a good organization to cultivate girls and watch these girls put a toilet together with confidence made my day.
Beautiful story sharing his wonderful legacy to young girls. A daughter of a carpenter, I wish my father had believed that his skills were worth sharing with his daughters and his daughters were exposed and interested in learning them. He lives on for all of us.
Thank you, Tina, for sharing this with the world. As a mentee of John's, I learned a great deal from him. It is an honor to continue in his mission of creating a more inclusive environment for women in construction. Thank you for working with ACI on this project!

Such a sweet story. Love this project. I’m certain there was a big John Neyer smile in the heavens above.
I sure hope so.
A trip down memory lane!
