I was so down-hearted to learn of John's passing. He was always a great conversationalist on any/all topics, before, during or after a good tennis match. Of course I always also needed to listen to him talk about his bad knees, but regardless, the conversation always included the great smile he always wore. RIP my friend! :-(
