I have known John for 14 years as we often shared work-out times together at the Crescent Hotel Spa and Fitness Center. There were many conversations with John. He was understandably proud of his accomplishments as a Dallas builder. But he was most proud of his family. He would always have a big smile when he mentioned them. I can remember his love of reading - he’d usually end a fitness class in the hot tub with a book in hand. John was liked and respected by his morning workout friends and the staff at the Crescent Hotel Spa. John often thanked the staff with a box of doughnuts to share. John wasn’t just an acquaintance… John was a true friend. We will miss him.
