IN 1967 I was a lt. in the Air Force stationed in North Carolina in charge of a maintenance squadron. I met a man named John Geisinger from Allentown, Pa. For years when I returned home I took my children's foreign cars to John for repair. Great mechanic! Great Man! Saw him at Bethany Church in the choir from time to time. Always enjoyed John.May He Rest in Peace!!
