I remember John explaining to me about TV beam antennas. I remember in 1985 he had a VCR in his living room that I learned could automatically record shows at a programmed time.

So between now and then, til I see you again, I'm lighting this candle and thinking of you.

I will miss John recounting his experiences and memories with Bertha and their children. I feel so privileged to have known him. God speed John, and I will "see you later". Love, Debby
