John was the first to welcome me to join the WKAA club. Good man and good friend. RIP my friend. Rodney Mayes.

We knew John for many years as members of the West Kentucky Amateur Astronomers club. He was a sweet man who would help anybody he could. The club relied on his tech skills to run the website, and his mechanical skills, including building the base for the 16 in scope at the Golden Pond Planetarium. We'll miss his jokes and his smile. Ad Astra, John!
