John and I were partners and friends for a number of years and he retired after I did. We kept in touch for a number of years, when his wife told me about his stroke. We were able to keep in touch for some time, but I havent been able to find out about him for some time. I call his wife frequently but she never returns mycall. If anyone has heard about him please let me know. I dont know if he is still alive and he was like a brother to me. Thank you
