He came through here in February of 2021 and we did some trading. Nice guy.

RIP John

As a retired U.S. serviceman living in Italy, I appreciated his perspective of current events. Seemed like a good guy to meet.

I always wondered that myself. Circumstances too similar to be a coincidence IMO.

John's Wife asked me to let all of you know that she appreciates your thoughts and prayers.

I told her I had posted about John's passing on here.
