John loved humanity.  He loved finding the common ground humans can always find if they just look and try together.

He was gentle, never sharp edged with people.

He did not believe in killing people; he was against capital punishment.

The toughest challenge for him, had to be when he was drafted and sent to Vietnam for a year as an infantry foot soldier in the jungle.

He was not afraid of his own death,  He was sure the universe had a plan for everyone even after a mortal death.

Marc Berry and I visited him and talked with him less than a month before he died.  He was proceeding with every day as really a bonus--another chance to visit with others.
