just heard from a colleague who was also taught by you, such sad news, such a great, individual and witty teacher, who even at my young age acknowledged he didn't necessarily always stand alongside his colleagues and peers with the standard educational grain of teaching.

Thank you John for all the good times - you are the true epicurean and educator. I’ll fondly remember our conversations on music, food, wine and comedy. Sleep well my friend. Rest in Power.
