I had a great deal of personal and professional respect for Habs. He was always kind, generous and helpful when it was needed or asked for. In Johns memory, and to benefit his family, I would like to auction off 5 of my "Prey" swimmers.....painted as the winner would like, as seen here or by a personal request of a special nature or preference. All proceeds will be turned over to Johns family. The auction will run until midnight Friday. Lets start the bidding at $50.00.

Thanks all and Rest In Peace John.....the "King" might be dead but his legacy will live on.
