John was such a selfless, kind, and loving friend. We enjoyed spending time with him as often as we could get together. We'd go to movies, share meals, look at pictures, meet for target practice, do some wine tasting, spend time at his hanger, and talk & laugh a lot. He was the most genuine person we'd ever known. We miss him greatly!
