What a great man, and long time ham radio friend. Too many good solent keys lost over the years - WB3LNY

I remember going to Pittsburgh for a Tae Kwon Do Tournament with John. We talked about everything. It was a pleasant memory.

I knew his parents first and never knew he had done all this in his lifetime. Very interesting to be updated instead of just lost. Thank you for printing this.

I have fond memories of John while he was at WHYL 960 Carlisle. He saw my interest and appetite for radio as a young kid and would invite me into the studio. Through him I got the bug for amateur radio. Rest easy my friend and thanks for the memories.
