John and I served together in the Air Force during Viet Nam. He and I were best friends and room mates in 1966-67 while stationed in Denver and Wichita. I just found out (9-01-2024) about his passing in this obituary. He was a great friend and a good man! If someone reads this please pass it along to Bonnie along with my email. Thank you.
