John was our neighbor and friend.  He will be missed greatly.  He always had a story or a joke to tell, some clean others not so much.  We always views John as a war hero having earned multiple Purple Hearts and other honors.  John was the best neighbor anybody could ask for, always willing to help or lend a hand.  RIP John.

I met John on my first days after I arrived in 1968 at the USAF club in Saigon.  John had a jeep and he realised that I had no way of getting back to BOQ.  He gave me a lift, and drove like a NASCAR driver through  streets like the INDY 500.  I did not know then that he was  such a great soldier.  It was so important to me that he called me when he started the Team 162  organization.  It was Saigon all over again.  It has been along journey that we enjoyed at reunions together.  Now it is time for our last reunion. As an old soldier of 90 years,  forgive me if I weep at your departure.
God, it was fun. 
Your dear friend,   Bob Hattler

John:  You've made your last river crossing, Brother.  Well done.

Our world is a bit emptier now because of your absence here,  but Heaven is that much more fill because of your presence there.  Rest in peace.

Cindy:  You have my most sincere condolences.  John was a good friend.  Still is......

We are very sorry to hear about John's passing.  We worked with him on the Vietnamese Airborne Reunion in Colorado Springs several years ago and thought very highly of him. May he rest in peace.
