Dear Diane and Family; I was deeply saddened to hear of JB's passing yesterday... Please accept my deepest sympathies. John was a very special friend to all who had the honor to call him that. That quick wit and his big smile, would always make you feel part of his inner being. And we all felt it. I will miss him dearly especially when I am on my motorcycle riding in the Adirondacks wishing he was there. Rest in Peace dear friend! Billy Talham
