So sorry to hear of John's passing. He and I graduated from school together. We joined the navy, together with Tom Lewis and James Duke. Went through boot camp. together. John was a great guy and enjoyed life to the fullest. He was just "Fun" to be around. Always looked for the good in everyone. We were active friends on Face Book for years. I, alone with many others will miss his since of fun and humor. Love To The Family
