John, you were a good friend, I am sad to know your gone, there will be an empty spot in my heart. I have been looking for you and Betty for years. Gods speed my friend, we had some good times riding our dirt bikes in our younger days. I still ride and race and this year of racing will be dedicated to you my friend……..Leo

Betty-this Jeannie Lawless formerly Smith, Moore. So sorry to hear of John’s passing. Is Aunt Ann still alive? Give her a hug for me and so sorry to have lost contact for so long. Hope that you and family are good,
