Our deepest condolences to the Heyl family. John’s love of music and old records, especially 78 rpm jazz records, were what first introduced me to him when I became music director at Kingswood Regional HS in 1979. Over the years we kept in touch, later at the Mirror Lake Post Office, as we both live on Tuftonboro Neck. He always had interesting stories and knew his big bands. Thank you John for the many memories.
