A gifted and astounding person. Every one who was lucking enough to meet and know him well would agree. I met him as Michigan State University. All his friends were stricken by his early and untimely death. All will remember him forever! We all loved him dearly! (J.D. also wrote an interesting & published novel!)
totally unforgettable! I have, unfortunately, lost track of his charming wife.
