Dr. John passed away a few days ago.
This is very sad news. His voice will be missed.
What!!! this has to be a joke?! no way.
I was suprised also. The guy that owns the small burger place next door called me and told me about it. I plan on driving there later today to see what up. But, it is true. His ex-wife was clearing out boxes, so I heard.
I will have a table at the convention feb 28 with mem. of dr john all proceids go into a trust acc. for his son damein who is only 13 and was living with john at his shop
not doc john from Detroit, Michigan?
I really wish I hadn't found this out on a forum. I only came on here because the emails I've been sending him were bouncing back and I was sure he'd find a way to put people in their place even if his email wasn't working. That's very sad news.. heartbreaking for me. He was a good friend, a mentor and sympathetic council for me in a rough time and I was looking forward to meeting him some day. Doc your essay emails and kind words will be sorely missed.
one less prick in the world. where can we send donations to his family?
I would like to know that too Noz.. does anyone have an account number for the trust fund for his boy?
