My brother was a wonderful husband and a very proud father. We all miss him terribly.
I remember what a brave boy John was. Even in the 7th & 8th grades he stood up for his political principles, which were different from those of our teachers. I didn't understand or appreciate him at the time, but I do now. I'm sorry to hear that he has passed. My deepest condolences.
I agree with Judith. He influenced me to stay "republican" even though it looked like there would be a Catholic president. I remember his dad was the Mayor of St Clair Shores.
I also remember John during our class Kennedy-Nixon debates. John represented the Republican point of view admirably even though the Kennedy Democrat side ounumbered him greatly. He did a great job and was well spoken.
