John was a great friend for over 40 years.
We played golf together for as long as he was able to play. We went to Dayton Bomber games at the old Hara Arena, and also went to many Dragons games. We had "breakfast " together on a regular basis on Saturday mornings at bars that didn´t even serve breakfast. Once I retired , over 7 years ago, we would meet almost every week for lunch.
I am happy to say that both of us were able to express our gratitude and appreciation of our friendship.
Yes, he did love golf, trivia, the Browns, and most importantly, he loved and missed his wife Bev.
I will also always miss John. Rest in peace my friend.
