s the first of the local kids to accept me as one of them and always invited me to go along with him to what he was doing. We spent great times as young boys exploring the great outdoors and the ins and outs of RimRock. near his home. John always remembered me even in his last days. A true friend. I will miss him and his infectious smile. Art Valiquette

John taught me everything I know about cameras & photography. I used his darkroom many weekends one summer in the 70s. He loaned me his old Nikkormat for a year (that was John) before I bought the FM from him that I still have. Many hours riding his motorcycle & shooting together & even some good pics. One he sent w/o me knowing to a magazine to be published! That was John too. He had such a love for photography & was very generous with his knowledge & time. I have fond memories. My best to...

John tried to teach me Karate at Inland Health back in the late 60's. It was a fun class and we learned more about Japanese culture and how to count than how to fight. We exercised every day and had meals together at The Well in the Magic Lantern building. He was a very nice person and will be missed by many. Rest in peace, sempai.

I remember all the great times the Franke family and the Brown family had in the neighborhood and at the Occident School. You always had a smile on that mug of yours. May you rest with your father. Luv Cheryl
