    Today is the day I was dreading.

    Tonight I will have to go and see my friend for the final time and some how come up with the strength to say good bye and let him know how in so many ways he affected my life and how I enjoyed the ride with him. John... I just dont know how to begin to tell you how much you will be missed. I keep asking myself what if you would have left the mountain 30 seconds sooner or later, What if we got the rain Sunday instead of Saturday.... There are so many "What If's" I keep playing in my head and all come back to the same thing, You were taken from us and I dont know how we all will get through this. Tonight we will need your presence to help us and most of all Arlene through this. We are going to be there for her, we will all take care of her for you.

    Yeah, it's going to be rough. Lets remember the good times tonight. John loved his friends, and he will be glad to see us all together tonight. He liked to have his family and friends around him more than anyone else I know. I can't remember more than a couple of times being at his house, or talking to him on the phone where someone, or a group of people weren't there. He sure knew how to have a cookout too.

    I just heard about what happend. It really got to me. He was one of the nicest people ever. It seems unreal, especially since we all just saw him at the UC meet. It definitly has made me not want to get myself a bike now. You hear about these things all of the time but never think it can happen to you or someone you know. I wish I knew about this earlier so that I could have been at his service. It has been on my mind none stop since I heard.

    You're right John. I assumed he would be there forever, or atleast yrs to come. You never expect it to happen to someone this young. Not so instantly atleast.

    jeeze bro. What a nasty wreck. I would have kept his plate or something to always have a piece of him on his last voyage. I don't like seeing images like this when I now got a bike.
