The 9th of February is the 9th anniversary of John's untimely death,
following a fall from a ladder at his home in Stillwater, OK. I still
think of John often. He was a good friend, mentor, teacher, and first rate
DXer. Rest in Peace, John. Please take a moment for some thoughts for
this amazing gentleman. Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC.

I met John once near my home town of Ponca City,Oklahoma.I talked to him
via phone and email a number of times afterward.I cannot say I knew John
well but from his writing,it felt like I did.He really put himself into His
writing and his enthusiasm for the hobby was perhaps exceeded by none.I had
moved here to TN when I heard the unfortunate news above his tragic
death.He is missed.RIP,John. Carl DeWhitt,KI5SF.

I remember John as a fabulous friend and fellow DXer - and as an
exceptionally knowledgeable DXer as well! Fortunately many of his
articles remain preserved and still available for today's hobbyists on
DXing.info:

I still get several inquiries annually from random readers concerning 
his articles, and I'm so sad to have to reply to them that John is no 
longer here to answer their questions and comments.

John certainly has a special place in out hearts for his immense
contribution to the Dxing hobby.
He was a very gracious person and sadly missed by everyone who knew him.
