I often think about John. You know how when you learn something for the first time from someone you often think of that person when you do that "something". When I first met John he had that cute little Cocker Spaniel and we were talking dogs and ever since then when I do a certain something with my dog I think of him. He had an excitement about him said I'm sure his loved ones missed terribly. A chance encounter with me, and a few meetings in between, but he is not forgotten.
