A wave of sadness at the passing of this good man, my old and dear friend from years ago.
John was a great man. He was a very special friend to me. I will miss him. My deepest sympathy to all of his family and friends
John and I growed together and were all great frinds. We had many great times fishing and camping on Big Island. We met up one time when we were Korea and had a great time-talking over old time. My deepest sympathy to all of his family and friends
