Condolence From: Arnott and Ruth Anne Matthews
Condolence: It was with great sadness that we read of John's passing. Our dealings with him go back for many years. We always found him fair, honest and a real gentleman. Even in negotiations for a new vehicle, we had a good time with him! Our sincere sympathy goes to the DeRusha family in their time of grief. You are in our thoughts.

Condolence: Though John and I didn't work or live closely he was a true friend and fellow Toyota Dealer.
When ever there was a Toyota meeting John and I joined together for fun and fellowship.
I have missed John since he retired, but I will see him in the big car lot in the sky.
God Bless.

Condolence From: Richard Marcotte
Condolence: To the DeRusha immediate family.
You've likely never heard of me, but I once was Toyota's Central Zone Sales manager in the mid 80's, and I knew your dad well.
He was a genuine, fun and jovial person and I enjoyed dealing with him immensely. He was fair and equitable and respectful of/to his fellow Toyota dealers and I dare any dealer to say otherwise.
He will be sorely missed by all of those who were close to him, and by to those whom he touched.
On behalf of my family, please accept our deepest sympathies.
