Not sure how he was the last in the family. John still has a son, Scott Foster, and grandchildren. It is also sad that he will not be layed to rest with HIS family that preceded him in death at the Foster plot on Mound Hill. Wish his family could have been contacted in an appropriate manner that he had passed instead of finding out almost one month after his death by one family member getting a letter from an attorney almost one month after his death. pretty sad!!!!
