In addition to many other attributes, he was politically involved. When I ran for office the first time, he told me to be sure to talk to Mrs Thelma Bettis; or maybe Mrs Bettis told me to be sure to talk to Mr Redding. One or the other. I greatly respected the political advice and the character of both of them. Mr Reading was a fine public servant. In addition to many other attributes, he was politically involved.

The first time I had a prescription filled by him he made sure I understood everything I needed to know about my medication. This was 20 years before any other pharmacy offered that service. He always had a smile and words of encouragement when you walked through the doo. And yes, his sense of humor was legendary. I missed him when he retired and the world is a sadder place without him. God bless his family. John Reading Sr. was one of the smartest,most compassionate person I have ever met.

My mother Thelma was a dear friend of John Reading. She oftentimes baked special recipes for his family's opinion. Mr. Reading has already been greatly missed by us with his business being sold. I have thought of him much lately. Our prayers are with you during this time. God doesn't make mistakes. He and He alone holds the power of "life" and "death" in the palm of his hands.

He had the best personality. His people skills were excellent. Many of us have survived whatever, due to his compassion and of course his famous CANTONMENT WINE. His comment " I'll wait right here for you" after making a telephone request for prescriptions to be filled was heard by many.
