My sincerest condolences to Brian and family, for the loss of Corky. I have many fond memories of times spent as a youth in Chelsea, when the Upps were our neighbors across the street. I know he will be missed.

I will sadly miss John and our Monday lunches. I worked with him at the Tulsa Jail for many years and always looked forward to our time together. He was very professional and caring for his patients. I know he's in a better place not having to endure the pain and weakness of his illness.

Deeply saddened. We knew John was fighting prostate cancer, didn't keep in touch nearly as much as should have. Many fond memories. John and I were roommates in Dental School. It was John who found me a decent job to considerably help both of us get through Dental School on a financial basis. John found a listing for jobs on the bulletin board at the school, took it down and brought it to me. We trained all summer 1966 at Trinity Lutheran Hospital in KC and worked there every weekend and took call at nights in the medical laboratory there. I have tremendous fond memories of our times together. Many others too numerous to mention. John got sidelined during our sophomore year because of a broken collar bone he recieved making a diving catch at an intramural touch football game. I wish I could say it was for the winning touchdown, I don't remember that, we'll just say it was. He was incapacitated in his attempts to do laboratory procedures at school. Many fond memories...............
