John Taylor - 1946-2009

One of my very oldest friends in fandom passed away late tonight after a lengthy battle with cancer. John Taylor was a fixture in the Kansas City fan community. I met him first briefly (I think) at MidAmerica-con in 1971. That was Kansas City's first science fiction convention. I saw him ocassionally after that at Hobbit House, KC's only-ever

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. He was a great asset to the local SF community, and many will miss him.
