He didn't get the year that the doctors told him him would maybe have. The light in my life has dimmed considerably. I know in his last post to you in October 2010 he told you about the disease he had and that he was hoping to complete some of the models he had started. This disease took the "wind out of his sails" and he never touched modeling again since he wrote that he hoped to do so. just answering emails was a real task for him. So this week I crumpled up a couple of unfinished boats and a building as well. I felt so badly about that, but I could not spot the pieces of paper that would finish the projects. He developed atrial fibrillation at the last and it was more than his poor heart could take. He will be missed in the kiting world and the paper modeling world. He used to say he would need to live to 300 to finish all of the models he had downloaded and printed out ready to go. We don't get those kinds of choices, sad to say, it would have been wonderful if he could have lived to 90 or so. Marzlie Freeman Check out what Marzlie and John accomplished together in their mutual hobby when John was alive. John's completed models are shown here too. http://2oldkiters.smugmug.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Papermodels II" group.
