To John, You leave our whole family with so many wonderful memories of times spent together over the years. For me, the memories go back to 1952 when Don and I met you and Joie in Norway, both couples recently married. We spent the fall biking, the winter skiing in the mountains. and the summer touring Europe in your Volkswagen Bug, sleeping in a 4 person tent with the occasional night in a hotel. The late night discussions in the tent between you and Don were sometimes pretty "hot" since the two of you came from opposite sides of the political and religious spectrum, and yet you remained friends through that summer and through the years, until the end.
