John was a student of mine when he lived in Florida and I was a fresh brand new teacher right out of college. He was a year younger than his classmates and was brilliant and I remember him graduating from high school in three years. His dad was an OB/GYN and he told me that he wanted nothing other than to follow in his footsteps. He also owned a car that had to sit on blocks until he was old enough to legally drive it! He was a great friend and a very positive part of my experience as I started a long career in teaching, which I still do at a community college here in Michigan. I am very proud
