Served with John in the 81st Wild Weasels. He was a great guy. Before we moved to Florida, he showed us all around Cape Coral. My condolences.

JOHN AND I SERVED TOGETHER AT KORAT IN THE 13 TFS, THEN SPENT MORE TIME TOGETHER AT NELLIS. HE WAS A GREAT PERSON AND SUPERIOR WARRIOR. DICK BAUGHN
I will never forget the times that John, Dixie, and I counted money at the church early Monday mornings. We always said that we were the best counters they had and we always made sure that the count came out correct! As we counted we shared good times and laughs. I will always remember those times and the smile that was always on Johns face. I always looked forward to seeing him on Mondays and making sure that he was ok. He always sat in the same place at church so I always knew where to find him to say hello. Rest In Peace John and know that you were cared for and admired for all you did.
