John Bolstad

Rest in peace, John

Rest in peace John. You will always have a good place in my memories of working in the DOE.

John,
All of the cousins looked up to you in admiration as children. The extended Holland family was and will always be so very proud of you and your accomplishments. Peace be with you.

John was definitely quiet unique. He is the only person that I know who didn't own a cell phone nor a car. He would not mind to ride his bike to a bus stop and then take Bart to SF and then catch muni in SF to go to see an Opera, silent movie, etc. He was one of the most cultivated persons that I know. It was fun to go to the Operas and silent movies together. We will always remember him.

We miss seeing you ride up to the shop on your bike! We miss your sense of humor and all your stories! We miss you!

This is a sad day indeed. John was briefly my neighbor on Charlotte Way in Livermore in 1988. I recall his unfailing humor at Livermore Lab notwithstanding that the Lab is a rather grim, humorless place - Baja Georgia, which I borrowed and used a couple of times. One of my best memories was seeing John trudging up Franklin (or whatever the name of the street is which goes up behind the War Memorial Opera House) from my perch on the balcony entrance of Davies Symphony Hall looking down...

He was a gentleman and a pleasure to have known.

We will all miss you, Uncle John. I hope you are at peace.

Rest in pease, John. It was fun working with you at LLNL.
