Three years without our friend. The void in our heart remains. I miss smelling the best of the best cigar smoke & watching you & your buddies sipping scotch. It´s not the same without you! Your quick wit & laughter was like no other. Watch over our girl. We will see again John. Jackie & Bunny Helmstetter

One of the nicest, friendly, most likable people I have known. He was very knowledgeable in many areas and was always willing to share his knowledge with others. Shortly after his knee replacements he would walk around the block like nothing ever happened and never once complained about what he had been through or what he was dealing with. We would always chat at the car shows and at home when we saw each other.
One fantastic induvial who will always be remembered.
