Alusha & Family ~ I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to John in person, and give him another hug and say "Thanks" for being the best neighbor anyone could ever have asked for. I remember the day he was laughing and playing ball with the kids (Johnny, Tracy, my son Joey and my niece Jama) when a car topped the hill on Clay St and came down 21st rather fast. Before the car was at the alley John was in the street with his baseball bat and, using his vast range of colorful adjectives - he sure could string them together! - he made it clear to the driver that this had better be the LAST time the car came down "his" hill so fast. I don't think we ever saw that car again LOL. He was always so protective of the neighborhood kids, and of my mom (Lola). When I moved to Florida I knew if anything happened John would be right there to help her, and that eased my mind so much. Ron & I can't be there on Saturday, but please know that we'll be thinking of you all and praying for comfort and peace as you say goodbye.
