It's my sad duty to tell you that our own Cap'n Krusty, John Larson, has passed away from pancreatic cancer. It was my honor to call him my friend.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) John was very kind to me and am sure he is still restoring 914's in heaven, but there is only 6's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

RIP

RIP John,

I had the opportunity to meet John one year at the Phoenix Club swap meet. He was wearing a Cap't Krusty name tag. Very nice guy to talk to and definitely not a crusty man in person.

Sad news again... RIP Captain.

Everyone keep healthy.. make the effort and give your bodies the best chance to fight anything that may come along. The older you get the more conviction and resolve you will need to keep your bodies fit. Do it for your families.

Someone needs to post a picture of John in his hat, I don't think I've ever seen him at a swap meet or event without a hat!

My wife offered her condolences as well, she had met John and his wife about 10 years ago or longer.

Such terrible news… shocked and saddened. I didn’t know John, but always felt privileged if The Cap’n commented on anything I posted, even if it wasn’t what I wanted to hear.
