I'll miss him.

Hi Ron; X2 On the man John was. He and I exchanged emails for years. He wrote me about taking you to Bonneville after I wrote to him about the first time I drove us up to spend some time with Walt DuPont. He loved the photos I used to send out of our lab litters, black females were his favorite. He always spoke highly of you and I have always agreed. We will always have great memories. God bless John and you, Craig.
