For so many of us, John was more than just a trainer or mentor—he was a source of inspiration, a steadfast friend, and a beacon of passion and dedication. To me he was a great friend, my brother from another mother, my mentor, someone i could talk to for advice, to give me constructive criticism, and so much more. I was privileged to know him, there will not be another like him!</span></span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=p2 style='margin:0in;font-stretch: normal;font-size-adjust: none;font-kerning: auto;font-variant-alternates: normal;font-variant-ligatures: normal;font-variant-numeric: normal;font-variant-east-asian: normal;font-variant-position: normal;font-feature-settings: normal;font-optical-sizing: auto;font-variation-settings: normal;min-height: 22px;caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto'><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=p1 style='margin:0in;font-stretch: normal;font-size-adjust: none;font-kerning: auto;font-variant-alternates: normal;font-variant-ligatures: normal;font-variant-numeric: normal;font-variant-east-asian: normal;font-variant-position: normal;font-feature-settings: normal;font-optical-sizing: auto;font-variation-settings: normal;caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto'><span class=s1><span style='color:black'>To honor John’s life and legacy, we will be gathering for a special evening of remembrance this Thursday, December 12, 2024, at 8 PM Eastern Time on Zoom.

We will share stories, express our gratitude, and reflect on the ways John touched our hearts with his teachings, support, and friendship.
