I have fond memories of  J.B. from Waltrip. Due to alphabetical seating he was usually sitting right behind me in classes. He was a fun loving guy and always had a funny story and a smile on his face.

Unfortunately our paths never crossed in the years since, but in reading his obituary it sounds like he had a good and active life.

Rest in peace J.B.!
