I was very sadened today to hear of John. Our thoughts are with his family, and we will miss him very much. His music home brought many smiles in our home, and will continue to do so. I am happy for the times I was able to see him enjoy his music. I was always hoping someday I would be able to go on a riverboat, and he would be there too. Our kids grew up listening to him. Our one son thought the Boogie Woogie Man was actually in the speaker. John will always be gentle on our minds. Thanks John, and may God be with you.
