They were fortunate to visit 37 of the 50 states, although, they had hoped to visit them all. John would spend his time at his home in Oscoda watching the birds and deer or swimming in the lake. He always looked forward to eating Nancy’s home cooked meals, either at their home in Michigan or their home in Texas. John was a talented sportsman, playing softball until he was 81 years old. His team won the playoffs and the championship the last year he played for them.
