I was a student of Dr. J´s and we met for lunch annually. He was just a professor he was a dearly beloved friend. He not only encouraged me but challenged me to always be the best version of myself. I can´t tell you how much I´ll miss him. He would tell his friends and family; " hang strong, there´s light at the end of the tunnel and it´s not an oncoming freight train". May his memory be a blessing.

I worked with John at The Montana Standard in the late 80´s. What an all-around great guy, just an excellent human. I´m sad to know he´s left this world for the next. Too soon. Love to all who loved him.

Our thoughts and prayers are with John and his family a this time. Prior to pursuing his doctorate in Ohio, John was an extremely effective reporter for the Montana Standard. He was a pure professional , I would bet that he was an outstanding Professor. God Speed Jim Kambich Butte , Montana.
