    Notes:

    Brian Damon first met John at a Family reunion in June of 1997. The following are some of the stories told by him at that meeting.
    John was sitting in the room when I first meet him and quite alert for a man of 90. At first he was reluctant to talk to me but, after a few minutes we started to talk and had a wonderful time. John told me he loved hunting and fishing. His favorite gun is the 30/00/6 and his 12 gauge shotgun. He had at one time 30 to 40 guns and his Craig was his favorite. When he would go hunting just walking the mountains was as much an enjoyment as hunting itself. He would often walk 20 miles a day when hunting. Deer season was whenever he was out hunting and even though he never went Moose hunting sometimes they got in the way and he would have to bring one home. When he was younger hunting was a vital part of the families diet during the winter and spring. When I asked him if he liked fly fishing or reel he told me when he really wanted fish to eat a 12 gauge would usually work well. He lived on a farm and raised cattle and poultry, and pigeons, that he sold and was shipped to Boston on the train.
    John served in WWII and was with the US Army's 2nd Division. He was with the division when they hit Normandy beach during D-day. John was laying on the beach when German planes were strafing the beach. There were 40 or 50 bodies laying all around him and he laid there while waiting to get over a hedge row. While waiting he was shot in the hip and leg and walks with a limp now due to these injuries. He went on to fight with the 2nd division, and march across Europe and later into Berlin. He was also stationed in Hawaii but, didn't like it because he felt it was a foreign country, and not really part of the United States. His home is in Buckfield and he loves it more than any place he has ever visited.
    John did not get married until after the war and he was 45 years old. He then told me he had to make up for lost time and proceeded to have 5 children. He often showed a lot of quite emotion when relating these stories with a sadness about the war or a chuckle when talking about his children or Bradbury. He told me "We are all short timers in life so enjoy because it goes by so fast ". I asked him about the rumor that Damon's were stubborn and he told me with a smile, " we're not stubborn but, If you don't think as I do then I guess you should go your way and I'll go mine. I had a wonderful time talking to him and felt as if I had known him all my life after only a short afternoon with him. For the first time in my life someone saw family traits and resemblance in me that were unknown to me before this day. It gave me a feeling of belonging and I will always be grateful to him for that.
    He asked me before he left to remind him who I was and who I belonged to in the family. I told him I was his nephews grandson. He wanted to know what happened to Elbert. When I told him he died at 48 of diabetes, John was a little disgusted, and said that was stupid he should have taken care of himself better, by dieting and lots of exercise. Walt, Gayle's wife and a doctor agreed with him and said he was probably right. He loved to tell me the stories of Bradbury and chuckled a lot when telling me the tales. John tired after a good meal and wanted to go home and said now it's time to go, and very simply got up and left.
