Read MoreI used to clean for John and he was always quiet, withdrawn and secluded while we were there. Except when we got to those instruments and his larger than life collection of art and music.

I met John at Cycle NC where a couple of years I shared a few beers with him and rode with him a few times. He was always a delightful person to converse with on many topics and I was deeply saddened to learn of his passing. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

My music partner and I played with John when he and Pat were still together in the early 90's, all musicians at the Georgia Renaissance Festival. He was an incredible musician, and I loved not only listening to him play, but talk about all the instruments he and Pat carried with them - especially the Hurdy-Gurdy, my favorite. Life changes took all four of us in different directions, but I still cherish those times...
