John FONTANE

So long, for now, old pal! Oodles of good childhood memories, and just glad that we stayed connected over the years! In spite of drifting apart politically, we never forgot that friendship! We miss you, old buddy! So instead of expressing our sadness, let us rejoice - and remember your favorite Christmas ditty, which seems appropo for the transition. "Christmas comes but once a year, many parties and free beer. So let´s all sing a Christmas carol, while we tap another barrel!" Here's...

So long "Action" we had a long and lasting friendship and it was fun while it lasted. My sympathy goes to Mary Jo and the rest of the Fontaine Family and friends. The class of 1954 keeps getting smaller as Jack and I discussed. May he be in the "Palm of His Hands". RIP JJF
