I had a dream last night about John, and it would not go away. So today I looked to find that he had passed last year. I cried....hard. I was John's first assistant when he came to the Hyatt Regency in Dallas. He was 29 years old, and I was 25. To say the least, he was a handful and a force to be reckoned with. He called me "Sunshine". I have a picture he gave me of him running his first "Turkey Trot" race in Dallas. I will share it when I find it. I kept in touch with him over the years, and would call him periodically to see what was happening with him. It was always a good chat, and he still called me "Sunshine". I remember him well and sad he is gone. In my dream I was going to work for him again, oddly enough. I was going to call him. God loves him too, and that is a comfort to us all.
