Members and friends,

It's hard for me to separate John from the club and from the living. He loved life and lived it with gusto. A kinder and more helpful guy would be impossible to find. One year at Carlisle I left the top down on my K while I went parts browsing. A sudden downpour sent me running to the car from the opposite end of the fairgrounds. When I got to the K, John had already put the top up and was wiping up the interior. John loved to drive fast. The month I got my J, I drove it gently to Carlisle. John wanted to drive a bunch of us to a restaurant in it. OK, Rick let's see what she'll do.....That was some ride! Now I drive it the same way. The next morning I was stuck in the hotel parking lot cursing at the reverse push button, which would not engage. John appeared on the scene to fix the recalcitrant mechanism. I drove off with a smile. That's the kind of guy John was.

  Dear Members:

  I am very sorry to report that I received a phone call from Dave Clelland 
  today, informing me that John Hertog passed away this afternoon. Apparently 
  his condition had deteriorated over the past couple of weeks, and his system 
  simply could not take it any more.

  No arrangements have been made of which I am aware, but Dave has assured 
  me that we will be informed when they are. The club has lost a very dear and 
  valuable member, and we have all lost a dear, dear friend. I know our best 
  wishes and sympathies go to his family and to Helen.

  Pete Fitch
