I was shocked to have found this on a google search for John. We’d been in touch via text and phone calls over the last few years and when I stopped receiving his texts/calls, I thought maybe he got rid of his phone. So sorry to hear this news. I enjoyed our conversations over the years. We first met we he and Kelly moved to Erie and he began working for me. On my cross country bike trip, he graciously hosted me when I passed through Medina OH. RIP my friend.
