John, Cathy & Betsy, I was sorry to hear
that John passed away. He was a wonderful man who lived everyday to the
fullest. His civic, business and community efforts are legendary. John was truly "Mr Sarasota". His Bald Mt Lake
fishing is legendary. I never will forget the day he took a bite out of the
Governor's wife's corsage.
