John and his wife Joan were dear friends of mine while I was at Kelly AFB.  I have many fond memories of the time spent with them at the old Flying K at Lake LBJ. Miss both of them but I know they’re back together again.

Well, I was afraid this day would come, the passing of my old friend from the Flying K and Kelly AFB days. The Flying K was my second home and John and Joan (May she Rest In Peace as well) treated me like family and it was an honor and a pleasure to know them both and call them my friends. The memories of the times I spent there could fill a book. RIP John!

So sorry to hear about Uncle Johnny's passing.  I last saw him when Dad passed and he and Aunt Joan hadn't changed a bit from my memories of them growing up.  I remember when both of our families lived with Nana & Gramp & Aunt Barbara for about a month while you guys were waiting to go to Germany and we were waiting to join Dad in Newfoundland.    Uncle Johnny made quite a few of the meals and was a great cook.  Dad thought Uncle Johnny was a master when it came to woodworking.  I'm sure you have a lot of good memories to hold on to.

I shall miss my holiday calls with Uncle Johnny: July 4th, Veteran's Day, Armed Forces Day, Air Force Day, Memorial Day etc.. We would discuss a variety of subjects and he was always quick to brag about his family. Patricia and how well she was doing on her job and providing a home for her and Robert; Robert and his school and grades, ROTC, college prep, and interest in politics. Judy and Ken and their home and dogs and the work and time they put into keeping up with everything.  Jimmy and Kathy and their jobs and Jimmy's home projects and Tyler and his music, and scouting.  We would also discuss Aunt Joan, Uncle Johnny's sister Irene, and Aunt Barbara.  I will miss our conversations and will remember him on  the holidays.
