When John and his family lived in Clay Center, Ks he and Dick Stone started the Mojo band. In 1968 when I was a freshman in high school, John asked me if I would like to join the group as their drummer. I did and played the next 5 years with them. John booked the band for a whole year with all the club managers around the area. Elks, American Legions, VFWs, Eagles and wedding dances, anniversary dances. He made sure the band got to go to the Kansas State fair to see Jerry Lee Lewis in 1969. He was a good loyal friend and always upbeat. In 2004 he got 4 original members, Arlon Meek, Dick Stone, Danny Long, and myself to play a reunion dance at the Clay Center Elks. We had a bbq at his daughters home and reminiscenced about the good ole days. John lived his life to the fullest and I will miss him very much.
