I got to know Mr. Myers in the mid 80’s when I worked for Street’s Auto Parts. He came into the parts place , we called it, one Saturday morning to get a part for his tractor, when he left James said, that’s Duck Myers, he is a friend of mine who was involved in the war. My dad was in World War Two, I was taught to respect veterans and revered them as Real Heroes. As the years went by I was afforded the opportunity to know him better and he would come by my little shop and we would talk, I would get him some part or we would discuss how something works or a proper adjustment one of his machines. This generation will be remembered for their honesty, humility,integrity. Mr. John has been a great friend, and my life has been enriched by his influence on me. I Will see you again my dear friend, on the other side.
