I am so sorry I am just now hearing about John's passing. He was a wonderful man and I feel privileged to have gotten to know him and work with him thru Tenkoz. Thank you for sharing the wonderful biography and may you take comfort in knowing he has made a difference in so many people's lives and in the agricultural world.

It was great to meet you yesterday. I hope you know how much your Dad meant to me not to mention many, many others. Mark, Dale Engan, and I had lunch together at the airport and continued telling John stories. It will take a long time to tell them all. I'm especially grateful for his wisdom I was about to get a dose of it when he started the call, You got a minute? Let me tell you a story. It was also a wonderful lesson watching how he dealt with people. His advice was to always leave the conversation so you could have another one. He was that way even in the most difficult meetings. I would want to reach over the table to get at them, but he was always thinking longer term and he was always right. Most of all, I'm grateful for his friendship. It is often said you are like the 5 people you spend the most time with. Man, how I hope that is true.

It was also great to see Leanne she looked terrific and it was good to catch up with her. She's an amazing lady.

Regards,

Jeff

His passing is sad for me and many others!
I met John when I was working with Stauffer Chemical and had contact with him through the years. I got to take John golfing one time at Lake Tahoe. We were driving the CEO's Jaguar having a great time!!

Leanne and Family
My connection with John goes way back to my father, Andy Adams. John and Dad were very close during those early days of Stauffer (1950s) in South Texas. Dad being the A & M Aggie and John being the Tea Sipper that he was I remember with great fondness them teasing each other. Dad was a sales rep in Northern Mexico and John in the South of Texas. I was only a boy in those days. When I went to work for Stauffer in the middle '70s Dad was very proud of hearing the stories of John still working with the old company.
John was such a special man to so many of us in so many different ways, friend, mentor, encourager, honest, and wanted the best for all. The ag chemical business was very fortunate to have John be a part of it and have untold impact on so many. The industry was not the same when John stepped out of it but many of us had the opportunity to call and seek advice post retirement. The World will be a little more empty knowing John is not here with us.
God Bless each of you and may Christ provide the comfort and peace only He can supply during this difficult time. Kim and I will be praying for you and the Family.

I have treasured his friendship since we met in Omaha in 1984. We stayed in touch in recent years thru e-mail, mostly concerning UT football stories and updates. John and I were both at UT at the same time but never met then. He was an interesting and giving person, and will be sorely missed.
