He is a wonderful loving, sweet son. John has two darling daughters, Victoria, born in 1997, and Natalie, born in 2003. I have played racket ball and tennis in the past. I try to jog and work out when I can. I have hunted quite a bit through the years, especially for elk, and continue to do so, even though my hunting trips are much less frequent than in the past,and enjoy photography, especially of hummingbirds and my granddaughters. Carol, my wife, and I have been married for 50 years as of August 8, 2015. She graduated with a teaching degree from Southwest Texas State and worked for several years, to help put me through medical school. We were married between my sophomore and junior years of medical school. She collects antiques and cut glass and enjoys being with our grandchildren, as do I.
I retired from radiology as of May 1, 2015 and am thoroughly enjoying the freedom.

John was a close friend in high school.  He was a good guy (I only ran around with good guys.) and lots of fun.  I am sad to learn of his passing.
