John was a good friend and will be missed. I use a percolated coffee maker because of John. He loved his percolated coffee, and had a great collection of new and old percolators. He was a mechanical wizard...ready to help anybody. Helped with my motorcycle when I had an issue. The fix is still in place, and works great. John lives on in my percolated coffee, and my motorcycle. I will never forget his love of life, his great laugh, and very friendly demeanor to all people. He will be missed by all people who knew him. Rest in peace, my friend...I will never forget you.
Sincerely,
