John was a model of cycling, swimming, and exercise. Who could not be inspired by this man's passion? His story, bringing his family to America from communist Hungary, is reminiscent of Abraham who left his home to seek a better home for his family. I hope to see John again in that city whose builder and maker is God.

Many fond memories of riding with John. We solved so many of the world's problems together. Wether it was a short or long ride, it was always a time to discuss the state of the world. He was a very good role model, modest, caring and not afraid to lead by example.
He is missed.!

Yes, he was an avid bicycle rider and I and many others enjoyed his conversations during a ride, or over coffee many times!
