I meet John years ago, I took care of John's Boat for years
,I loved talking to John,I loved hearing his stories.
John was the talk of the Marina how he would just show up and his ol Boat would start and he would take people out on the River.
I lost a dear friend I will miss his advice and his smile.

John, an entusiastic man of many accomplishments, was a true inspiration not only during Viking days but at our 39th Viking Anniversary at Langley, July 2015. May his soul rest in peace. Fortunately, John's book and NASA Langley preserve this marvelous history: https://www.nasa.gov/langley/old-vikings-recall-nasas-first-successful-mars-landing
