I just returned from an extended trip to learn of John's passing. So sad. More than just being a great birder, John was a dear friend and my memories of him will first and foremost be his friendship. He was incredibly generous - housing me prior to Morehead CBCs (and other birding events) for decades - even back in the days when he lived with his folks. I was continuously amazed at how easily he opened his house to me (and other birders) - almost as though we shared the residence. He was truly a unique force and his passing leaves a deep hole that cannot be filled. RIP my dear friend. You will be sorely missed but never forgotten.
