John Vossmeyer, Friend

[Ron Hill]

Last year, at the Enduro, my friend John Vossmeyer and family, patrolled he entire Enduro. They were the ones that pulled boat 305, Plan B in...and Plan B, later won.

I've known John since before he was married. He moved my air conditioner at my Irvine house in 1975. He has grown daughters, now. I sold my wife's boat to his sister, in 1984-85..they still have the boat.

The weather was bad the week before the Enduro and John and all decided not to attend, this year....Last year, Chad said everytime he went around the Badnoch's corner, the Vossmeyer's and crew, cheered him on from their dock.

I got this note and pictures from John today, seems maybe he won't miss next year's race...

Thanks, John. You've been a true friend for years...


ADD: Who is that 819 boat???
