John took great pride and pleasure in participating with CASARA. This photo with Bill captures a lighter search and rescue moment as the two tricksters posed as air crew waiting to be rescued, "with no extra points for being uncomfortable".

As a member of CASARA Ontario, John often served with evaluation teams. His gentle sense of humour came with perceptive insights. He made the suggestion that the evaluation team, Mike Casey, Terry Nord and John, pose to characterize their important work. Thankful for having known John, and blessing of peace for his family.
