To Mary. I worked with John at Moline Motors, where I was the clean up high school kid. I started this job at MM
in 1956. John became a great role model and friend soon after he joined the dealership. We often went fishing together, even to northern Wisconsin. Loved going with him to his see his parents on the farm. Also had brief times with him when home from college. I have often thought of John through the years, picturing him with that pipe in his mouth. My very best.
