John was one of my favorite people and it was always a challenge matching wits with him. We had many good times together. The smile never changed. I will miss him!

So sorry for your loss. I worked with John at Boeing years ago and he always made me smile. Even though John is at rest, I bet he is playing golf with someone. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.
