Mr. John Fenton Williamson

I was but his computer tech, yet with each of my visits to JFW Ins I slowly learned that "JF Wins" would have been a more suitable name. He was above life, and loved being generous, but not as much as he loved those Ducks. I remember teaching him how to click respond rather than printing out his emails, writing on them, and then faxing them to the sender. He was amazingly dense when it came to computers, but his warm heart, kind generosity, wisdom, and love for his family and friends radiated from this man. I enjoyed working for him, and now that I have recovered from my own death-like experience, I find that my good friend is gone. JF, you were the Winner, and I appreciate the guidance you provided by way of being a terrific role model.

The best home, dream on; the best car, dream on; the best wine, dream on; the best life, dream on

For tomorrow the good lord may take you away

Good Bye my generous and thoughtful friend

I took a long bike ride the other day thinking about how my life will change now that Willie is no longer a part of it.

I will have to find somebody to talk to a couple of times a week on matters big and small, just talking really,I always enjoyed giving John a hard time on so many topics. Funny thing was, I think John liked it as much as I did.

I won't have to keep up on the Giants as much as I did in the past, to know what is going on, to have an opinion of why they were incredibly awful at any certain point in time, not that it really mattered, I was never going to be right, my opinion was just that, he knew the real story.

Johnny was our insurance broker, so not sure what I do about tracking Obama Care, do I need to read more or less about it? With T Bones "love" of Obama it was always a little confusing, was he telling me the facts or talking smack?

I will have to find somebody to go to all Bay Area Duck football games too, Cal-Oregon is coming up soon, I don't think he had bought the tickets yet and I'll have to find somebody to go with now.

I'll have to pick up a lot more checks for everything from Ducks and Giants games to nice dinners, Bone always liked to pick up the check, each time I would say, "you don't have to do that, let's split it," and we would say "it's OK, I want to do it", and I would let him because I knew that he really did enjoy it.

But the thing I will miss the most is his ready laugh, not only did he appreciate my some times dry cynical sense of humor, when I gave him a hard time, which was pretty much all the time, and he enjoyed that too!

And going forward every time I raise a glass of really expensive wine, the kind that usually was from a bottle that he had brought, or was going to buy when it was gone, I will toast my old friend Willie, to the memory of his sense of fun, his generosity, and his kind soul! I miss you my friend!

My deepest sympathies to all of John's friends and family.

Johnny, WillieBob, love you dearly and will miss you bigtime. You were kind/friendly/generous, and boy did we have fun together. Our tennis, partying, trips, will all be remembered, and wow 7 days at the Olympics. Most of all, I will miss our lively phone conversations, always at night, cause you worked so hard.
You can now slow down in heaven.

Our hearts are filled with sadness at the loss of John.

We can only say how much we will miss John as well. No words can express how much a part of our life's John was, and will always be, we are sure, and be held in our hearts forever. Always giving us a shining example of kindness, caring, loving, and fun.

God gave us a true family member that remains with us through the rest of our lives, so close yet not with us in body any longer.

With our Deepest Sympathy,

Johnny, a great friend for many years, generous, skiing and tennis pal, lots of great memories, Tahoe & China Peak, the best wine, many long nights with Brad and I in 2009/10, opened your home to us, great chef, you will be missed by all of us at China Peak.

John "Sonny Boy""T-Bone Boy", "Bone Boy"
Williamson. RIP Buddy !! Will never forget you in the TC House !! What a great guy !! Heaven is a better place now.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
