Darn it John, Pat and I were surprised to see you here although we will all join you at some time. I worked at the VA hospital too, but I guess we just missed each other. They said you stopped by once in awhile and I wish I could have seen you again. After Pat and I got together again I ran into you at Thomas & Betts. We had some great parties and it seemed like we were back at Reno High again. Lol! You will be sorely missed by those you were spending time with and, of course, at the hospital. RIP to one of our favorite friends and classmates.
