thank you for posting this!! Not only did I always enjoy Dad giving the address to the haggis, but I can also watch and hear his voice whenever I want!! It's been a year since his passing, but his memory and voice will always live on!!

We didn't need Malcolm Macdoo's snide comment. Becky Sager, Marietta GA, friend and student of a fondly remembered John.

It's to bad we have to kill to live and great poets and artists suffer most

What a treasure to have this video - thank you for posting it! No one could tell a story, or recite a poem like John... How we'll miss him.
