I think about John often...

I can still hear him passing gas and saying, "It's good to be the king!"

I'll never forget when John joined me on our annual Menemsha filming trip. When he sat down in the rocker at the corner store at Bettlebung Corner and looked at me and kept saying, "I'm sooooo relaxed. No really, I'm so relaxed." It was great seeing John unwind for a change...he often got wound up pretty tight by people and events that rubbed him the wrong way.

We had epic fishing in the creek at dawn and on one of the outings I got him on film turning to the camera and saying, "I think I died and went to heaven." Could be the fact that his Habs poppers were outfishing live herring had something to do with his euphoria. I hope he's catching on every cast now. RIP my old friend.

Here are a couple of vintage Hab shots:
