extract from The Village News by David Leonardo
John Prince has died. A former principal of Chambly County High School, he succumbed to cancer. Even though he suffered from the disease, John could still be found working as a volunteer for St. Barnabas Church right up to the end.
When John was school principal, Eardley Dowling was the chairman of the school board. Says Dowling, of all the school principals he was the most trustworthy and upstanding. There were many problems to solve in the schools, but he never had a worry about Chambly with John at the helm.
Believe those who seek the truth. Doubt those who find it.
