I had the pleasure of knowing John throughout my six years at the University of Kansas. We would share a seat together on the bus to campus and discuss mathematics and music. He always treated me with respect, dignity, interest, and compassion. His consideration was always most appreciated. We had intended to get together so that I could teach him the music for some of my musical projects because he expressed his enjoyment of my music. Once, I played the acoustic guitar for him in my office. Even before I had my PhD, John would always refer to me as "Dr. Beck" or "Professor Beck." He attended many of my talks in the Graduate Student Commutative Algebra seminar, and he would ask many questions. He was a very kind, intelligent, and funny person. He had many talents and interests, and it was a joy to have the privilege to know him. He will be sincerely missed. Rest in peace, friend.

I remember John as a student. He attended many lectures, and I assumed he was interested in most things. My condolences to his friends and family.

I remember meeting John when I was in graduate school. He always had a smile on his face and was eager to learn. His inquisitive mind will be missed.
