I knew John when he was our neighbor along the Tulpehocken River in Berks Co, Pa. I was 6 years older than he and 4 to 5 years older than his sister Karen Ann. I am so sorry he passed away as 68 isn't really that old anymore. With both his parents gone I hope I can find his sister sometime. Best wishes for a great guy.
