We will be putting all of the pertinent information on this list in a few days. I last spoke with John two weeks ago today. He told me how he planned to beat the cancer again. We talked about the upcoming Nat'l and how we would fill out our ballots together-for at least the last ten years we would discuss all the candidates and mark our ballot and seal them, so neither of us could change them after we hung up. Those phone calls were usually quite lengthy and sometimes there were some heated discussions, but a lot of thought went into each vote. I miss John already and hope that he is in a better place with his beloved dogs and Connie. The German Shepherd world has lost a true advocate of the breed.
