My thoughts & prayers to John's family. I have fond memories of John from living near him in Bow in high school. Playing penny poker at the Rodger's, waterfights, playing baseball, snowball fights at the bus stop, hide & seek in the corn at night, and so much more. Every now & then I have thought of him, and wondered where he was.
With sympathy,
