So Sad, The world needs more people like John... John took me under his musical wing and introduced me to Jeff Beck and George Benson at the ripe age of 15. He showed me how guitar is the coolest instrument ever, and has led me to a life long love of music and guitars... Getting him and his band Snowblind booked at my high school for a dance, to seeing the John Northrop Jazz Rangers at the Park Motor Inn... My heart is broken for you Susan... I still have a live recording of John and Clyde Stubblefield that was broadcast on WIBA... It still gets played on a regular basis... I am a better person for knowing John and Susan, and always appreciate the time they spent with this kid of 59 years...
