I was a classmate of John's at Beloit College. Played on our football team with him. After graduation I toured Europe with him for two months, in the MGB his father bought him as a graduation present. It was 1966. We visited every art museum. We went behind the then Iron Curtain. John was such a great mix of macho man, and worthwhile individual, and semi-intellectual. So sad to see he is gone.

I am grateful to have gotten to know John over the past year. He had a quick wit along with that little smirk :) Thank you for sharing him with us, at Fairhaven.
