Not sure what to say?

I think of John often, and the fun we shared on and off the radio. He was a great friend, and we had many ventures together. Spelunking and going to the Indy 500 are just two of the many. A bright and funny man, we spent countless days together.

My sympathy to the Fraim family. As a newsman at WTVN in 1969-71, I worked with John and got to know him. He was a very bright and talented guy. I was single and far from home, so John invited me to share Thanksgiving dinner with him and his family in 1970. It was a very nice time and a kind and generous gesture I always remembered. I'm grateful I got to see him not long before he died. May he rest in peace.

I remember John from when he resided in Leveque Towers Columbus. I worked for State Representative Gilmore and was head of Security for Katherine Leveque. John was a great man and we became very good friends. R.I.P John you'll be missed by many. God Bless the family.

John was one of the first people I met at WTVN Radio in 1968. He has remained a memorable radio friend. I am so glad we had another - last chance - to reunite at a WTVN reunion this past June. I loved his stories about family and his adventures and will treasure the On the Air collection of his Special Reports. My sympathies and best wishes to his children.

John was the most interesting man I knew and worked with. He had insights on most subjects that made you stop and think about it in a new way. I am thankful we got 90 years of that, and sad at the same time. We will miss him

Peace be with you

Steven, Stephanie and Amy. May God wrap his loving arms around you and bring you comfort.
