John was a great man! I (unfortunately) only knew him as a commentary for the NFL Sunday night football, but I got to know him through the years! From what I knew, he was a patient and passionate person, always a positive thing to say!!! Show me the fundamentals of the game, and what not to do! His experience and expertise will be missed!!! And I feel for his family!!! Sorry for your lose!!!

I never got the chance to meet John, but I felt I new him just the same. I listened to him weekly on KCBS radio. First with Al Hart the when Al retired with Stan Bunker. I laughed and cried with them while they spoke to John mostly about sports, but then just about everything going on in day to day life. I always wanted to go to his yearly barbecue, but even though I entered the contests to win a ticket to the barbecue, I never won a ticket. When I heard John had passed I cried for hours. I...
