It is with a heavy heart that we say good-bye to John Vail, a long time pillar of our community. I received the news this morning that John suffered a heart attack this morning and passed away. I had seen John as recently as last week at the Downtown Vision Seminar, and he was as involved and dedicated as ever to improving Michigan City for everyone. Rest in peace John, and prayers to all of his many family, friends, and associates.

Sad news indeed. I remember John very well from my dad's first campaign for mayor when John ran for council-at-large - and won. RIP to one of Our Fair City's biggest supporters.
