Hi Guys,
That is sad news! I've known John for years. Every Spring the
GSNA holds a convention here in NJ. As an officer, I was given a
complimentary room in the hotel. For 10 years or more, I let John share
my room for free. being a book dealer, and not making tons of money on
books, I felt this was an added incentive to participate in our
conventions. What is a convention without a book dealer? The
discussions we had for hours... He had an excellent knowledge across
the board in numismatics. He cared for his elderly Mother well into her
90's. She passed away last year I believe. I will miss John, his
hulking frame (400lbs+?), his booming voice, his knowledge, his strong
political viewpoints, and his smiling face. I won't miss helping lug
books into the convention from his van!
He'll be missed!
