Dear Kathy, I just saw that John had passed away. I am so sorry for each of you. I will keep you,David and James in my thoughts and prayers. If you ever have a chance I would love to talk to you and catch up..... I still live across the street and look at the house and remember the good times. You and I have been through some really rough times but having good friends surely helps. Martha

My sympathy goes out to John's family and friends. On behalf of our little gang back in the day down Hickey Park in Medford we are all saddened by his passing. Bobby Green was always his best friend from those much younger days. John was a brave guy who fought for his country and will always be remembered as a fun and kind person. May he rest in peace.
