I've known John for a long time, having first met him in the mid '70s at NSGD NW in Chesapeake, VA. He and I turned out to be quad-mates in the barracks. We shared many memories together while in Chesapeake; from going camping in Luray, VA to working on his '57 Chevy and going to the shooting range. I know he is in a more peaceful place now and someday, we will meet again. My thoughts and prayers be with you in this time of your loss and sorrow.
