He was my high school boyfriend . Such a good guy.

I havn't seen my Uncle John in a number of years, but nevertheless I have vivid memories of the great man he was.He was so funny,and so quick with the comebacks! He could turn anything he encountered into the funniest story I have ever heard.He loved Art and encouraged me to persue my artwork,oh I how I appreciate those conversations.He got me, I love that!I just hope that he knew how much I looked up to him.It does makes me happy though that he is with his brother who adored him.I miss him so!

With Water Resources International (the company we worked for) he became one of my appointment setters. We would get up around 9am, go to breakfast and spend the whole day driving around setting up appointments for me. It was his dedication that helped me become one of the top reps...
