I remember John, although we always called him Bernard. We lived just down the road from him and when we would play as kids, when we left each others house, we would always walk half way together and when we reached the fenceline of his property, we would run back home each way so the boogie man could not get us. Also had fun catching frogs , then my mother had to fry the frog legs for us. As far as later in life he went his way and I went mine. never met again jim baldus
My sympathy goes out to the family. I knew Bonnie and Steve. You are in my thoughts
and prayers.
RIP My Dear Friend John - we shared 20 months of weekly visits and talked of our mutual US Air Force experiences, although I was a bit younger we knew what enlisted military people went through in the 50's & 60's. You had kind of a gruff exterior but, I knew you did look forward to our visits so, it was always fun for me to come in to visit you. Your Hospice Friend JJ
