I only knew John for a short time, as we were neighbors at the Redskins games. However, he always treated me as if we had known each other for years, and his passing has left a void in my life. I can't even imagine how his passing has affected those to whom he was closer. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones. He will be deeply missed.
