I couldn't have said it better, Tracey! I too, found out about this from FB and came right over. I didn't get to meet John/Phred in person - but he was certainly a pillar of this community. I'll never forget the year of the firemen at the southern CA BBQ!
He always had something positive to say and prayers to give for those in need. Reading through all these posts brought tears to my eyes. He will certainly be missed.
Although I don't have a dog - I'm close enough to actually drive to Findley this year...hmmmm....
