John McDonald ‘60 passed away on Friday March 8th at the VA hospital in La Jolla. I called him the week before and he seemed fine, but he had been in the hospital for several months. I never found out why, other than he was not able to walk or get out of bed. John and I were friends in high school and we both joined the Air Force about the same time. He was in the Air Force Band where he was constantly traveling and performed at various venues around the world. I was assigned to Air Force intelligence operations planning. We ran into each other a few times during that time. Since then our lives took totally different paths and we only saw each other a few times in the last fifty or so years. He worked as a musician most of his life. -- Paul Montgomery
